Base, a blockchain platform, has announced several initiatives aimed at enhancing the onchain economy and user experience. The platform has introduced Basenames, which are ENS names optimized for low-cost or free use, facilitating connections among builders. Tom Vieira from Base highlighted the integration of Chainlink's infrastructure solutions, including Data Streams and VRF, as essential tools for developers creating decentralized applications (dApps). Additionally, OneBalance has launched an Angel & Community Round to foster a collaborative web3 user experience, with endorsements from various industry leaders. The initiative aims to simplify blockchain interactions for users. Base is also enhancing user experience through gas fee sponsorships for multi-app embedded wallets, thanks to Base Grants. Furthermore, developers can now access indexed data more effectively through Substreams integration with The Graph protocol, following the completion of the Chain Integration Process in June. The Base Canada team recently hosted an event in Toronto to connect local builders, artists, and businesses, emphasizing the platform's commitment to community engagement.
