Hey, it’s Marc. ✌️
Today, let's dive into one of the most exciting Layer 2 chains out there: Base.
What happened:
Coinbase has partnered with Stripe to make crypto transfers faster and cheaper with integration into the Base chain, enabling instant crypto purchases with credit cards and Apple Pay.
Moreover, Farcaster, one of the leading decentralized social media platforms, has introduced Warpcast Pay on the Base network, to make on-chain payment easy and seamless.
Why it matters: Coinbase has over 110M registered users. It’s and is one of the most active and trusted exchanges in the US.
Stripe’s integration on Base enables instant US fiat-to-crypto onramp with USDC with cheaper transfers to 150+ countries. With a 21% share of the global payment processing market, Stripe ranks as the second most widely used payment solution in the world.
