Overview
- The new bridge is live and enables direct transfers between Coinbase’s Base network and the Solana blockchain.
- Transfers are independently verified by Chainlink CCIP node operators and Coinbase-run infrastructure to reduce bridge risk.
- Users can move SOL and other SPL tokens into Base and use them natively in dapps, with the option to send Base assets back to Solana.
- Early integrations include Zora, Aerodrome, Virtuals, Flaunch, and Relay, providing immediate trading and liquidity routes.
- The implementation is open-source on GitHub, and Base says Solana is the first external connection as it plans additional chain integrations.
