We’ve recently launched Base network on PayTrue, allowing users to purchase USDC on Base.

Now, our users can sell USDC-BASE for CAD with PayTrie as well!

Base was announced in the beginning of 2023 and there are already dozens of dApps on it, with more to come.

What is Base?

Base is built on Optimism’s OP stack to remain permissionless, decentralized, and open to everyone. It’s an L2 network meant to be secure, low-cost, and developer-friendly to build dApps on-chain. Working with OP Labs and the Optimism Collective, Base has a goal of a “superchain”, where other L2s will eventually increase interoperability and jointly scale Ethereum, creating an ecosystem on a single chain.

In addition to being an open ecosystem, Base will also be home to Coinbase’s on-chain products. For developers, they can utilize Coinbase’s products and tools for seamless integration with Coinbase. Base is also designed to serve as a bridge for all users into the wider world of crypto through an easy-to-use onchain experience with access to other chains.
