Trac Network vs Base

Trac Network — unlike traditional blockchains — does not utilize blocks to process transactions. Instead it operates in favor of a constant stream of transactions that are peer-to-peer-validated and settled on decentralized ledgers. The topology of Trac Network allows for near-instant transaction settlement and a better user-experience. Trac Network uses DAGs as well as distributed clocks to maintain linearized and causal order of network messages.

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.
