With Coinbase-backed Ethereum layer-2 network Base setting new records for daily active users on decentralized exchanges (DEX), it has emerged as a key player in the crypto space.

Main Points

Meme coins frenzy has been a major driving force behind the surge in trading activity on the Base network, positioning it as a leading platform for meme coin projects and speculation. Uniswap led with an 85% user share, followed by PancakeSwap, Aerodrome Finance, and SushiSwap. The Base-powered DEXs have surpassed BNB Chain in active users, trailing only Solana in terms of user base.
