the best way to think about basenames is that they are *.base.eth ENS-powered usernames, fully onchain, natively on L2, priced so billions can claim them, and with superpowers for building and living on @base.

now for normal people: basenames will be the easiest way to get started onchain, period.

Not sure there is a solution but how does a future where you have JohnSmith12.base.eth and someone sends you something to JohnSmith11.base.eth

Curious to see how a future alphabet soup of mass adoption looks in that regard.

Anyways excited to see how the energy builds.

Growing veggies for the fine folks of Southeastern Massachusetts, w/ a focus on nutrient quality. Always interested in the evolution of digital payments.  🎩 

Yeah figured as much, just thinking stakes may be higher in the future.

I’m pretty patient, understand things take time, and realistically some level of privacy will likely need to be present before wide scale adoption unlocks for certain use cases.

would be the same as sending to a wrong email - not much to do except for try again. we can build tools to help folks validate / make sure they have the right address using onchain data (eg farcaster graph)
