BASE APP'S EARLY METRICS

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Base App transforms Coinbase's wallet into a crypto “super app,” merging self-custodial wallet functions, Farcaster-powered SocialFi via Zora NFTs, USDC-based PayFi with 1% cashback, and integrated mini-apps. Since rebranding in July, daily token launches surged from 4k to 15k, trading volume rose from $1M to $6M, and creator rewards jumped to $30k/day, with over 8k Zora smart wallets now active. Partnerships with Zora, Noice, and Clanker, along with an independent security council and a friendlier US regulatory climate, fuel speculation of a future $BASE token.
