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 Fantom
Fantom is a high-performance, scalable, and secure smart contract platform engineered to surpass the constraints of preceding blockchain platforms. Operating as a permissionless, decentralized, and open-source network, Fantom leverages Lachesis, its asynchronous Byzantine Fault Tolerance (aBFT) consensus mechanism. This innovative approach enables Fantom to achieve remarkable speed and affordability compared to older technologies while maintaining exceptional security standards.
