The BASE Cascade will be fully functional and secure at launch.

TLDR; BASE listing has been pushed back to November 30th so we can ensure that the BASE Cascade is fully functional and secure at launch. We’ve also doubled the initial rewards allocation for the Cascade. And keep an eye out for a huge integration announcement happening today!

Pushing Back Listing Date for BASE Cascade

After all the feedback and excitement we’ve gotten from the community about the liquidity staking rewards program, the BASE Cascade, we’ve made it a priority to ensure that users will be able to stake BASE in the Cascade from the moment they’ve received their tokens. As such, it is very important that the Cascade contract is audited and secure by launch. Halborn will complete the BASE Cascade audit and produce a report in one to two weeks.

The Base team prides itself in developing a protocol that is fully functional at launch; we have pushed the listing back by 12 days to stay true to this ethos. On November 30th, BASE will be listed on Uniswap and the Cascade will be immediately available for all BASE holders to use.

The Base Protocol project was first announced publicly on October 14th. With a November 30th listing, the overall turnaround time for BASE’s launch will have been 47 days — less than seven weeks.

To thank our community for their patience on this update, we’ve doubled the initial Cascade rewards allocation.

The BASE Cascade is a powerful mechanism for incentivizing liquidity providers, where the earliest stakers are rewarded the most. By having the Cascade ready from day 1, we ensure that earnest BASE supporters can stake a strong claim in these rewards.

Integration Announcement / Mainnet Launch

We’d also like to mention that we have a major integration with an industry-leading project that will be announced today. To demonstrate the efficacy of this integration, BASE will be deployed on mainnet.

As a note, the BASE token contract audit has been completed by Halborn and is in strong standing. We will update this Medium article with a link to Halborn’s report soon.

This integration is our biggest partnership yet and a huge step forward for Base Protocol. Make sure to stay posted on BASE socials to hear about it first!
