The onchain summer is approaching and we can feel the heat. The Base ecosystem is boiling with innovation. From tokenized social likes and AI-powered finance to portable games and generative art economies, the past week has shown that Base is more than a chain—it's a launchpad for the future of the internet. Whether you're here to build, trade, collect, or earn, there's never been a better time to dive in.
On May 21, 2025, @HeetTike introduced $NOICE, a project that poses a provocative question: “What if likes were real?” The answer? A token that transforms social interactions on @base into tangible value. $NOICE aims to make every like, comment, and follow on Farcaster (and soon Twitter) a financial transaction, turning digital engagement into a micro-economy. This launch marks a bold experiment in tokenizing attention, aligning with Base’s mission to build the global onchain economy.
$NOICE is designed to “programmatically send” tokens to users’ wallets based on their interactions. For example, liking a post could trigger a small USDC or custom token transfer, like $CLANKER or $BNKR, directly to the content creator. The project’s vision, a is to have every interaction fueling a new class of social economies driven by creators, builders, and their believers.
NOICE is a bold step toward tokenizing social interactions on @base, turning likes into liquid assets. With 30% of its supply locked for strategic distribution and plans to expand across social platforms, it’s a project worth watching. For Base users, it’s a glimpse into the future of onchain social economies
On May 22, 2025, @fxhash_xyz expanded to @base, bringing its Tezos-born onchain art platform to a new audience. Powered by the $FXH token, fxhash enables artists to launch art coins, collectors to buy them, and traders to provide liquidity, all within a community-driven ecosystem. A recent airdrop claim rewarded early adopters, signaling the start of a new creative economy on Base. For users, it’s a chance to engage with proven art tech, but success hinges on adoption. Check it out!

On May 21, 2025, Black Mirror, a Web3 platform inspired by the dystopian TV series, announced a potential airdrop, stirring excitement among @base users. The project, which integrates NFT technology to create “Social ID” NFTs, offers access to exclusive content and community features, blending fictional narratives with real-world utility. To be eligible, users must register with their wallets and X account, connecting both EVM and Solana wallets—a nod to its cross-chain ambitions.

Their EDGE Ascent program, announced on May 1, 2025, includes Tiered Staking (live now) where you stake $EDGE for scaled fee reductions based on trading volume, and Trader Rewards (coming this summer) to earn $EDGE on every trade—powered by activity, not emissions, with bonus rewards for stakers. Plus, Coinbase One users enjoy no fees up to $50k in volume, making trading even more accessible. Definitive’s pro-level features make it a standout for serious traders on Base.

Onchain finance just got a neural upgrade with @gizatechxyz’s ARMA, a flagship AI agent now live on @base.

@virtuals_io continues to drive innovation on @base with a slew of updates that have the community buzzing. The latest Genesis Points FAQ, updated recently, introduced a new staking period structure and the revamped Diamond Hand Bonus, now integrated as a multiplier within the Daily Active Bonus. To earn these points, users must stake their agent tokens—no staking, no points—and claim them daily, ensuring active participation in the ecosystem. Staking with developer locks now boosts your Daily Active Bonus through an enhanced dev-lock multiplier, rewarding long-term commitment.
Many of the graduates from the Genesis program are seeing impressive wins: $AXR (Axelrod) surged 35% to $0.0215, while $ARBUS climbed 28% to $0.0187, reflecting strong market confidence in AI-driven projects on Base. Another notable mention is $BIOS from BasisOS by Virtuals, which saw a massive run up this past seven days. $BIOS holders can also participate in Mindshare Mining, earning tokens by spreading the word on X, further tying Virtuals’ ecosystem to community engagement. For Base users, Virtuals’ updates and winners highlight the potential of AI agents in DeFi, but as always, DYOR

The crypto rumor mill is heating up as whispers of a high-stakes bidding war between Ripple and Coinbase for Circle—the issuer of USDC—continue to swirl. While Ripple reportedly made an initial offer of $4–5 billion, Circle is said to have turned it down, seeking a valuation closer to $9–11 billion or more. Some sources even float a $20B offer in play, though that remains unverified.
With Circle still eyeing an IPO, and USDC’s role as a central pillar in the stablecoin race, this story could reshape the onchain landscape if it unfolds.
As the Base ecosystem continues to grow at lightspeed, it’s clear that innovation, experimentation, and community are at the heart of it all. From tokenized attention to AI-powered DeFi, there’s something here for every kind of builder and believer. If you enjoyed this roundup please consider picking up a bit of the $BM token—it’s more than a tip jar, it’s a nod to the power of onchain media. See you next week, frens.
As always...
Stay Based!
