Base blockchain

When working with Base blockchain, a layer‑2 network built on Ethereum that aims to make on‑chain transactions cheap and fast. Also known as Base chain, it enables developers to launch dApps without paying high gas fees. Genesis block, the first block that sets the initial parameters for any blockchain determines the consensus rules that Base inherits from Ethereum. Modular blockchain, an architecture that separates data availability from execution, like Celestia influences how Base can scale in the future. Finally, AI blockchain integration, the pairing of artificial intelligence with smart contracts for automated, secure processes is becoming a key use case on Base.

Base blockchain encompasses low‑cost transaction processing, which means it requires efficient fee handling. That’s where priority fees, extra tips paid to miners or validators for faster confirmation come into play. On Ethereum and its L2s, users set these tips to outrun network congestion. Understanding how priority fees work on Base helps you avoid overpaying while still getting quick confirmations. At the same time, the modular design of newer blockchains encourages developers to offload data storage to specialized layers, making Base’s transaction layer leaner and cheaper.
