This week on Base: Film, identity, and a celebration for International Women's Day
A new film presented by Steven Soderberg, curated lists of pfps and podcasts, a celebration for International Women's Day, and more. Here's what's happening onchain.
Cinema without gatekeepers
The traditional model for film distribution is broken, with middlemen raking in profits while artists struggle to get by. 'Cold Wallet' is flipping that. Presented by Steven Soderbergh and Decentralized Pictures, this onchain release is a better way to support filmmakers directly — $14.99 and it's yours, forever. No licensing deals, no artificial scarcity. Just film, onchain, as it should be.
This release is a real showcase for how creators can release their work and connect with their audience without interference, onchain. Imagine an entire industry rebuilt this way: transparent, direct, and designed to benefit the people actually making the work. We're watching the start of something big.
Onchain curation
Looking for a new onchain identity? Highlight just dropped a collection of based pfps, giving you a way to express who you are in this digital world. Identity is whatever you make it. Find yours.

International Women's Day
For International Women's Day, Rarible is spotlighting the artists pushing the onchain art world forward:
Juujuu Mama, mapping self-discovery through AI and African storytelling.
Shaylin Wallace, channeling the divine feminine in surreal collage.
Nygilia making identity and confidence impossible to ignore.
Amber Vittoria, redefining what it means to have a seat at the table.
Miss AL Simpson, demanding financial sovereignty.
Princess Tuti, showcasing a digital heart fractured into pixels and glitches.
Rueby paying tribute to fierceness.
Sherie Margaret Ngigi radiating light from within.
JOYFUL, dropping joy itself.
Art is always about more than the final piece. It’s about who gets to shape the narrative. onchain is where artists take that power back.
Home Base at ETHDenver
The onchain future isn’t just an idea; it’s being built, right now. The Base team showed up to ETHDenver and hosted buildes pushing the limits of what’s possible: Moshicam, Slice, Farcade, Freysa, and more. We're here to support the next wave of builders bringing the internet onchain, and it's still day one.
Home Base at ETHDenver was pure builder energy.
We're building the onchain future, together. Still day one.
