Base and the Compounding Effect of Developer Activity Developer participation is one of the strongest leading indicators of ecosystem growth. As more builders deploy on @base.base.eth, tooling improves, integrations multiply, and shared knowledge accelerates progress. This compounding effect strengthens the entire network over time. Each new application increases composability. Developers can integrate with existing protocols instead of building from scratch, reducing development time and increasing innovation density. Over time, this creates a layered ecosystem where progress becomes cumulative rather than isolated. • Developer growth amplifies ecosystem value • Increased composability accelerates innovation • Shared tooling reduces friction • Applications build on each other’s infrastructure • Growth compounds over time
