🌟 For Beginners: Understanding the Appeal of the "Base Chain" Compared to Ethereum

The DADAMO token, $DADA, uses the BASE chain. Here is an explanation of the appeal of this BASE chain.

What is the Base chain?

The Base chain is an Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) chain developed by Coinbase, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the United States. While Ethereum is secure and highly reliable, it has faced challenges such as
high gas fees (transaction fees) and slow processing speeds. The Base chain was created to solve these issues, combining "low cost, high speed, ease of use, and security."

🔻 Key Point:

• Ethereum is unsuitable for small transfers, but Base makes it easy to use

Popular Use Cases for the Base Chain

✅ DeFi (Decentralized Finance)
Major DeFi platforms like Uniswap and Aave are supported. You can use them without worrying about transaction costs, even for small amounts.

✅ NFT Marketplaces
Supported by platforms like OpenSea, allowing NFT trading at the level of a few yen. Easy for beginners to try out.

✅ SocialFi (e.g., Friend.tech)
New services that tokenize relationships on social media have become explosive hits.

Bridge Costs and Points to Note

• Ethereum → Base
  Since the source is L1, it costs several hundred yen in gas fees (immediate transfer possible)

• Base → Ethereum
  Inexpensive, but there is a 7-day waiting period. If you want an immediate transfer, there is an additional fee (about 1-2%)
  

🔻 Conclusion: Using it entirely within Base is the most economical way.
