Coinbase Wallet is now the Base App, evolving from a wallet into an everything app that brings together social, apps, chat, payments, and trading. Anyone can manage their assets, post, connect with others, and directly earn from their work.
We believe the next chapter of the internet won’t come from big platforms. It’ll come from creators. That’s why we rebuilt the Base App from the ground up, not just as a wallet, but as a new kind of open social network. One where you own what you post. Where your work earns. Where your feed is yours.
Starting today, the Base App is available to everyone in more than 140 countries.
On today’s social media platforms, the platforms maintain control over content and users, and capture most of the value everyone creates. With decentralized social media, no single company owns user data or content, putting users directly in control. Creators can earn directly from their content and have the freedom to take their identity and content with them across different apps, rather than being locked into one platform.
The new social feed in the Base App is powered by Farcaster, which means creators can own their content and earn directly from their success. Creators don’t need to rely on brand deals or massive followings to earn their first dollar. Anyone, anywhere in the world can get on Base and earn from day one. We're enabling a flywheel between creators and their audience where any user can easily tip or collect their favorite content directly, creating a new economic model for creators.
- Earn from your content: Every post is a coin that can be bought, powered by Zora. Creators can earn with no follower minimum, brand deals, or geo restrictions.
- Watch your network trade: See what your friends are buying and swapping, and jump in without leaving the feed. Discover new tokens and trade in just a few taps.
- Post and be rewarded: Top creators who post and engage with the community on the Base App will earn weekly rewards for a limited time, subject to applicable terms and conditions. Payouts occur weekly directly in the app, where you can track all your earnings as a creator.
Everything onchain is now in one app. No downloads or switching tabs or apps just to share something fun.
- Explore mini apps: Mini apps live right in your feed. Play games with mini apps like Remix, earn yield with mini apps like Morpho, create your own prediction market with mini apps like Bracky, and more. Pin your favorites, discover promoted apps, and see what’s trending. Thousands of mini apps are available on day one.
- Access millions of coins: Buy, sell, and swap millions of onchain coins with fast and integrated transaction flows within the Base App. Your keys, your crypto.
- Send money with just a tap: Send or receive USDC on Base for free by using NFC tap-to-pay in person. Transfer in seconds and get it immediately in your account.
- Customize your space: You own your social profile. Customize it, theme it, and bring it with you anywhere you go.
- Earn, just by holding crypto: Activate USDC rewards and earn up to 3.35% APY just by holding USDC.
Chat is now more than conversations. Powered by XMTP, they’re living, breathing spaces where you can share apps, send money, or even message AI agents – and it’s all end-to-end encrypted and private.
- Build a community: Create group chats, manage conversations, and share your social content, all without leaving the app.
- Transact with AI: Make trades, send money, or even balance your portfolio with the help of AI agents like Bankr or Mamo that integrate directly with messaging.
- Send funds to friends: Send or receive USDC on Base instantly within your chats with no transaction fees.
- Keep everything private and secure: Every conversation is end-to-end encrypted, so you have ownership and privacy of your discussions.
Today marks a new chapter for Base and everyone building with us. This vision brings everything together: social, identity, apps, payments. All powered by Base. All open by default.
What isn’t changing is that we’ll continue to build in the open, with open source code, open standards, and open markets. This isn’t something we’re building alone. It’s being shaped by thousands of developers, creators, and communities building on Base every day. We invite everyone to sign up to try the new Base App, share your feedback, and most importantly, keep building alongside us. Your participation is what will truly shape the next iteration of the internet.
