Brand in the Open

We're reshaping the Base brand. Not from the top down, but from the ground up. With artists. With builders. With you.

Now, we’re sharing the first step. We started with building blocks. Blank canvases. Pixels to push. We took the shape that holds all of those things—a square—and asked 10 artists to reimagine Base from their point of view.

In the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing the progress, inspiration, and ideas behind what’s next.

The first case study: Discovery, is now live. Browse through the assets, and collect the first week on Zora.

QR code as attention engine

What if a QR code could change the internet, every single day?

QRcoin.fun is a daily auction where the highest bidder decides where one persistent QR code points for 24 hours.

Created by @0FJAKE, it's part game, part performance art, part "onchain attention machine™️". One code, but endless destinations.

Microtransactions are starting to make sense on the new internet that's being built onchain.

Your newsletter, onchain — no moving required

Tried onchain writing but don’t want to rebuild your whole newsletter? Now you don’t have to.

Paragraph just launched auto-crossposting. Drop your RSS feed from platforms like Substack or Medium, hit publish, and your writing goes onchain automatically.

It’s never been easier to write onchain.

As always, this is just a slice of what’s happening onchain. Around the world, people are building, creating, and reshaping what the internet can be — and it's happening on Base.
