Coinbase introduced their own Layer-2 called “Base” and their mainnet went live just recently. Developers have already started launching tokens on this layer-2 and a meme-token “BALD” was also launched mimicking Coinbase’s CEO Brian Armstrong.

Massive Pump:

The coin got a huge attraction, and within the minutes of launch, some whale address already held much $BALD tokens after developers. Within minutes, 500 ETH was converted for 5% of the total supply, and to the surprise, it later pumped 30,000 times giving massive profit to early birds. With this massive hype and all, Coinbase Layer-2 network Base will stay as an emerging one in the market, although they stated that they do not have plan for launching their token.

BALD Token on Base:

You can check its’ price and market cap on CoinGecko, and for trade stats and all, I would use DexScreener. This token BALD seems to be available only on LeetSwap DEX for now. If you want to purchase or experiment on Base, you have to add “Base” to Metamask which can be done easily from Chainlist. You can bridge your ETH from Ethereum to Base by sending ETH to portal.base.eth, a direct method for now.
