After successfully opening a Base account, bridging some assets to Base, and registering a Basename, this time we will join the Base Guild together and make a name for ourselves in this new world. Guilds originated in medieval Europe, referring to associations of artisans or merchants like blacksmiths’ guilds or carpenters’ guilds, with the purpose of protecting industry interests, setting standards, and ensuring mutual benefit. However, I guess most readers who have heard of guilds know them...

When people talk about Coinbase, most think of the centralized exchange registered in the United States. But that’s just the “COIN” part. Its other major business segment is the Base chain, Base DEX, and the “beginning to explore” BASE coin. As someone who has used and recommended COIN in the past, I must now go against my former self. I no longer recommend using this centralized exchange, as it is not friendly to the Taiwan and Hong Kong regions, and even if you manage to get an account, it ...

Bob, Recently, Dragon Ball Z was added to Netflix. I watched for a bit and was shocked to realize it was a 1989 production. Moreover, it didn’t start from the beginning of the story but from the scene where Gohan is born and the Saiyans arrive on Earth. I was taken aback and could hardly stop myself from sighing at how time flies. Getting back to the main topic, handling cryptocurrency inheritance in a decentralized way is a principle much like Dragon Ball: the private key is Shenron, who gua...

At Base Camp last month, Coinbase announced it was “beginning to explore” a network token, a complete reversal of its previously adamant stance of having no plans to issue a token. No one can blame them for this U-turn. For one, it’s perfectly understandable for a commercial entity to change its plans. Secondly, even if they had this plan back when the Base chain was launched in 2023, it’s conceivable they kept it under wraps. This would have been to avoid attracting hordes of airdrop hunters...

Let’s continue counting down the eight great misconceptions about money. This time, it’s about cryptocurrency. Misconceptions about traditional currency stem from having fixed ideas about long-established things without zooming out to see the full picture. Misconceptions about cryptocurrency, however, arise from cognitive biases toward new things, either by being misled by their names or by making flawed analogies to the physical world.Part 1: Eight Misconceptions About Money: Fiat Currency E...

My good friend Bob has supported my writing since the genesis of LikeCoin and started buying Ethereum and Bitcoin in 2018, accumulating a certain amount of wealth. I’m not sure if it’s my influence or if our values were always similar, but Bob rarely uses centralized custodial services. His cryptocurrencies are mostly “off the grid,” managed through self-custody, and everything has been running smoothly. However, when we met in Taipei recently, I learned that Bob is facing a happy problem: he...

Last week, the Student Union of New Asia College at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) released a consultation document for a referendum on its intent to register independently, with voting held from October 3rd to 20th. Coincidentally, it was in October four years ago, just as the CUHK Student Union (CUSU) was being shut down, that I wrote a three-part series discussing the possibility of a CUSU DAO or even a CUSU Coin. Looking back now, these ideas were not detached fantasies but fo...
