I still think a lot of people are underestimating how many new users Coinbase is going to bring onchain with Base.

I like to think of Base as Coinbase's (better) version of Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and we all know how much activity BSC saw during the bull & how that activity has sustained itself in the bear as well.

I do wonder how this will impact the TVL distribution and by extension defi across L2s.

Do you think it will pull a meaningful percentage of assets there to have a vibrant defi ecosystem or do you think it’ll be more consumer facing (with gaming and such)?

I don't think games are going to take off on rollups b/c even though rollups are cheap (and will get much cheaper over time), something like a Validium (where data is stored off-chain) is much cheaper and better suited for gaming.

So I think Base is much more likely to have a vibrant DeFi ecosystem than anything else.

Seems accurate, many mass online games produce an incredible amount of data, I know I have been to an Oracle conference a few years back and it was disclosed there that WOT had special deal with Oracle Cloud. 

So if we talking about millions of players is not sustainable on side chains or rollups.
