Coinbase’s Layer-2 solution, Base, has surpassed $2 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL) within a year of its launch, becoming the second-largest optimistic rollup on Ethereum after Arbitrum. With a 370% increase in TVL since early 2024, Base leads in user activity, boasting over 1.1 million active users and 8,335 new wallet addresses registered in a single day. Key contributors to its growth include the Aerodrome DEX and Uniswap, driving deposits of over $1 billion and $220 million, respectively. Analysts predict Base could surpass $3 billion in TVL by the year’s end. Source: Coinspeaker
