Ethereum layer-2 scaling blockchain Base, that was launched by Coinbase last year, is enjoying explosive growth in its ecosystem, is enjoying explosive growth this year amid a building meme coin craze, with a new Base crypto presale called Dogeverse recently surging past $450,000 in funds raised.
Since the start of 2024, the value of crypto locked in Base smart contracts has tripled to $1.775 billion.
That’s according to DeFi Llama trade value locked (TVL) data, which showed Base TVL at $518.53 million on 31 December.
