The developer-focused mainnet for Base has been launched, allowing applications to be deployed on the network. This comes after the introduction of the testnet version in February.
The Base development team has conducted comprehensive internal and external security audits to enhance the network’s safety as well as the OP Stack. The research team noted in a statement that these assessments involved participation from Coinbase protocol experts and over 100 external security researchers.
Several developer tools are now available on the Base mainnet, according to the team. These include node providers Blockdaemon, QuickNode, and Blast, Safe Wallet, block explorers Etherscan and Blockscout, as well as data indexing platforms The Graph and Covalent.
