Coinbase’s Base sets sights on $100 billion and 25 million users in 2025

Base, the Ethereum layer-2 network developed by Coinbase, has unveiled an ambitious roadmap for 2025.

The network seeks to secure $100 billion in on-chain assets, onboard 25,000 developers, and attract 25 million users by the end of the year.

Additionally, Base is working toward processing 1 billion transactions by October 2025 as part of its growth targets. To handle this surge, it plans to scale its transaction efficiency by increasing blockspace capacity to 250 million gas units per second.

Lead developer Jesse Pollak explained that these efforts align with its broader strategy to expand its ecosystem and accommodate rising demand.

He added on social media platform X that these goals are critical for positioning Base as a leader in the blockchain space while remarking that:

“2025 is our year…the year we build together.”

The network’s vision focuses on five core priorities. These include providing advanced tools for developers, fostering innovation in decentralized applications, and streamlining user experiences.

Additionally, Base also aims to enhance global liquidity and upgrade its infrastructure for better scalability and performance.

Base’s growth

The ambitious plans are unsurprising, considering Base has rapidly grown into one of the most influential Ethereum layer-2 solutions since its launch in 2023.

The network has outpaced competitors like Optimism and Arbitrum, with data from Token Terminal showing it as the most widely adopted layer-2 solution based on monthly transaction counts.

Market observers noted that Base’s connection with Coinbase provides a solid foundation for the platform’s growth.

Notably, Coinbase, the largest crypto exchange in the United States, has launched several products, such as Bitcoin-backed loans and Bitcoin-wrapped assets, on the Ethereum layer-2 solution, further strengthening its ecosystem.

Furthermore, Base’s innovative approach to infrastructure design has helped it address critical challenges in blockchain scalability.

Despite its success, Base has no plans to introduce a native token. Instead, Pollak said the network is focused on creating tools that empower developers to innovate and address real-world needs.

He said:

“There are no plans for a Base network token. We are focused on building. And we want to solve real problems.”
