Coinbase\u2019s layer 2 network Base is gearing up for its widely anticipated mainnet launch. The Base team published a roadmap titled \u201cPath to Mainnet\u201d earlier today that provided an insight into the network\u2019s progress and upcoming milestones in the run-up to its mainnet launch. Coinbase also listed a series of objectives to be fulfilled before its L2 solution\u2019s mainnet goes live later this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to a blog post by Base, safety and security are the top priorities for the network as it gears up for its mainnet debut. The key milestones to the way to mainnet include the demonstration of testnet stability, Optimism\u2019s successful upgrade of Bedrock, and the completion of reviews and audits. The completed milestones include the completion of the Regolith hardfork in testnet and the infrastructure review with Optimism\u2019s team ahead of the Bedrock upgrade.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The objective remains to increase economic freedom and opportunity around the world by onboarding the next million developers and billion users into the crypto economy. Contradictory to the speculation in the crypto community online, Base stated that there are no plans to issue a network token. <\/p>\n
