(MENAFN- Crypto Breaking) Coinbase 's layer-2 network, Base, may soon introduce a native token, according to creator Jesse Pollak during the BaseCamp event.

Base stated that the new token aims to foster decentralization and unlock new opportunities for developers and creators.“We're still in the early stages of exploring this, and there are no specific details about timing, design, or governance at this point,” the platform explained in a recent update said .

During the event, Pollak also announced the launch of an open-source bridge connecting Base to Solana , enabling asset transfers between the two chains and providing developers with access to a wider liquidity pool.
