we're thinking about what's next for @base and the core team after onchain summer.

- what would you like to see us work on?
- what feedback do you have?
- what can we improve?

open to any and all ideas 🔵

@base builder #001; onchain cities w/ OAK & city3

with love, stop misusing the word onchain to describe ipfs nfts on a centralized rollup with no fraud proofs

thank you! and i mean the ‘with love’ part. i would deploy on base today; it is fun and i’m onboard.

yes they mean ethereum culture and they’re so right that the word might have already changed meanings haha

feel like i know what they mean but its always strange to read it

i minted an nft on chain (i used my personal wallet an sent eth to a contract and received something that looks like an nft in return)

i minted an on-chain nft  (i minted something that is entirely stored on-chain)

i expect base will end up being credibly decentralized. i use more centralized chains like polygon and base often. but calling it onchain summer is particularly in your face stealing valor from truly onchain ethereum art to sell offchain nfts on a presently centralized chain. still i’m enjoying the drops this summer!

I get this position but I'm honestly curious, do you not think that the current state of Base is simply a necessary intermediate step on the roadmap to increased decentralised and trustlessness?

Yes please. I’ve always considered onchain NFTs to be on chain like math castles. 

With new L2 platforms claiming their art is onchain, I’m more confused than I was 2 years ago.

I want to fight about it. I just want our vocabulary aligned. I’m super confused and I know I’m not the only one.
