Coinbase today announced the following: "Base is an Ethereum L2 that offers a secure, low-cost, developer-friendly way for anyone, anywhere, to build decentralized apps. Our goal with Base is to make onchain the next online and onboard 1B+ users into the cryptoeconomy." My immediate thought would be to launch GMX on Base after the release as Synthetics to be the first protocol to get first mover advantage. I wanted to share my thoughts and see if the community had any opinions. ---
