Report: Vitalik Buterin Says Coinbase’s Base L2 Is Doing Things the Right Way — 3 Trading Takeaways for ETH and OP

According to the source, Ethereum cofounder Vitalik Buterin said Base is doing things the right way, a remark that could steer trader attention toward Ethereum Layer 2 activity and related assets, per the source. Base is built on Optimism’s OP Stack and uses ETH as the gas token, anchoring direct exposure to ETH and the OP ecosystem, per Base documentation and Optimism documentation. Base has no native token, and its sequencer is operated by Coinbase, guiding indirect equity exposure considerations toward COIN alongside ETH and OP, per Base documentation and Coinbase public statements. Traders can gauge momentum by tracking Base’s TVL and activity share among L2s before positioning in ETH, OP, or Base ecosystem assets, per L2Beat methodology and dashboards.

Vitalik Buterin Endorses Base L2 Security: L2Beat Stage 1, Non-Custodial Withdrawals, Censorship Resistance for ETH Traders

According to @VitalikButerin, these non-custodial guarantees and L1-controlled exits are designed to safeguard user funds, a core risk factor for capital deployment on Base and across ETH L2s.

Optimism (OP) Predicts Every Fintech and Exchange Will Launch a Blockchain within 5 Years, Fueled by Base L2 Success

According to @jessepollak, OP Labs' Head of Product Sam McIngvale predicts that every crypto exchange and fintech company will operate its own layer-2 blockchain within the next five years. McIngvale cites the significant success of Coinbase's Base network, which is built on Optimism's (OP) OP Stack, as the primary driver for this trend. The key advantage highlighted by McIngvale is the ability to monetize dormant crypto assets held in custody; for instance, a user can move their Bitcoin (BTC) to Base and borrow USDC against it, transforming custody from a cost center into a revenue-generating activity. This dynamic has reportedly spurred 'Base envy,' prompting other major exchanges like Kraken, Bybit, Bitget, and OKX to launch their own L2 solutions, signaling a major strategic shift in digital finance infrastructure.

Is Base Stealing Ethereum’s Future? Analysis of Base L2 Siphoning $50B+ Market Cap and Ethereum Scaling Risks

According to Milk Road (@MilkRoadDaily), Base has emerged as a dominant Layer 2 (L2) network, quietly capturing over $50 billion in market capitalization from the Ethereum ecosystem. Data cited in the discussion highlights that while Ethereum's on-chain economic activity (often termed as 'Ethereum GDP') is declining, Base's rapid growth as an L2 solution is attracting both projects and capital. This trend raises concerns for Ethereum traders, as significant value migration to Base could impact ETH transaction fees, network security funding, and overall liquidity on mainnet. Traders are advised to monitor Base's TVL and user activity as these metrics may influence ETH price action and L2 token valuations, especially if Ethereum's scaling approach continues to divert value away from its base layer (source: @MilkRoadDaily, May 2, 2025).

According to Milk Road, Base now holds 55% of all active addresses on Layer 2 networks, surpassing the combined total of other major L2s (source: Milk Road, April 27, 2025). This significant user activity suggests growing network utility and transaction volume, which could drive increased liquidity and trading opportunities on Base-related tokens. Traders should monitor on-chain activity and price trends for Base-native assets and related DeFi protocols, as rising address activity often precedes heightened market volatility and potential price movements.
