About Blockchains
About Base
Base, an Ethereum-based blockchain developed by Coinbase, operates as a Layer 2 (L2) network, leveraging Optimism to provide a secure, cost-effective, and user-friendly environment for decentralized application (dApp) development. With a mission to onboard the next billion users to web3, Base ensures near-zero fees, quick transactions, and robust security supported by Ethereum's infrastructure. At its launch, Base had over 100 dApps and service providers, aiming to solve the blockchain trilemma by prioritizing interoperability and composability among participating rollups. This approach enhances scalability while preserving security and decentralization.
About Aurora
Aurora is a Virtual Chain built on NEAR. The first of many. It’s, at the same time, the sandbox and the proof of the robustness of the parent protocol. It’s a smart contract - probably the most complex that exists - that is also an Ethereum Virtual Machine, providing a turn-key solution for developers to operate their apps on an Ethereum-compatible, high-throughput, scalable and future-safe platform, with low transaction costs.
