Coinbase launched its own Layer2
#buildonbase is an Ethereum L2 that offers a secure, low-cost, developer-friendly way for anyone, anywhere, to build decentralized apps.
More scaling solution for ETH. The base is powered by Optimism's OP Stack, making it one of the most secure, scalable EVM L2s out there. The OP Stack is an open-source public good that will serve as the foundation for a “super chain” of L2s that share interoperability, sequencing, and governance. They announce that they do not plan to issue a token, It's also boldly written on the handle bio, there is no plan for $Base tokens as they will use native $Eth for gas fee, so possibly they might be no #Airdrop?
They might not want to alert airdrop hunters as they really want to attract real users, so #Airdrop is very possible, airdrop can be in form of NFT, a pass, or even Tokens from projects building on Base.
Here are a few interactions you can do to earn you some possible drop in this new l2.

After minting the nft, I feel it's important that you know some of the projects already building on base.
