Base may announce its token on 12/17. You might have heard this 100 times, but this time it’s a bit different.
First, let's look at the timeline:
• Strong rumors on 12/17 (multiple sources)
• Layer 2 supported by Coinbase
• No token has been issued yet, but the ecosystem is already up and running
Compared to other L2s:
After Arbitrum issued its token: ARB fell 70% from its peak
After Optimism issued its token: OP also fell continuously
Base has not issued tokens yet: users are frantically interacting, all betting on airdrops
There is a paradox here—
Before the token is issued, everyone rushes to interact, but after the token is issued, no one plays anymore.
If Base really announces on 12/17, what do you think it will be:
A. Like ARB, it peaked right after the launch
B. There will still be different ways to play
Are you still interacting with Base? Or have you given up?
