Base, the Ethereum layer-2 network developed by Coinbase, has unveiled an ambitious roadmap for 2025.
The network seeks to secure $100 billion in on-chain assets, onboard 25,000 developers, and attract 25 million users by the end of the year.
Additionally, Base strives to process 1 billion transactions by October 2025 as part of its growth goals. To accommodate this increase, it plans to increase its transaction efficiency by increasing the block space capacity to 250 million gas units per second.
Lead developer Jesse Pollak explained that these efforts align with its broader strategy to expand its ecosystem and meet growing demand.
He added on social media platform
“2025 is our year… the year we build together. »
The network’s vision focuses on five core priorities. These include providing advanced tools for developers, driving innovation in decentralized applications, and streamlining user experience.
Additionally, Base also aims to improve global liquidity and upgrade its infrastructure for better scalability and performance.
Base Growth
These ambitious plans come as no surprise, given that Base has quickly become one of the most influential layer 2 Ethereum solutions since its launch in 2023.
The network has outpaced competitors like Optimism and Arbitrum, with Token Terminal data showing it as the most widely adopted layer 2 solution based on the number of monthly transactions.
Market observers have noted that Base’s connection with Coinbase provides a strong foundation for the platform’s growth.
Notably, Coinbase, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the United States, launched several products, such as Bitcoin-backed loans and Bitcoin-wrapped assets, on the Ethereum layer-2 solution, further strengthening its ecosystem .
Additionally, Base’s innovative approach to infrastructure design has helped it address critical blockchain scalability challenges.
Despite its success, Base has no plans to introduce a native token. Instead, Pollak said the network is focused on creating tools for developers to innovate and meet real-world needs.
He said:
“There are no plans to create a core network token. We focus on construction. And we want to solve real problems.
