解读Based Memes和Based Institute:Base生态未来在何方?

编者按:作为 2024 年最炙手可热的 L2 生态之一,Base 的崛起可谓是“天时地利人和”缺一不可——既有 Memecoin 热潮带来的天赐良机,也有基于 OP 生态、背靠 Coinbase 建设的 L2 低 gas 网络,更少不了协议负责人 Jesse Pollak 以及一众生态建设者们的努力付出。

而针对 TVL 已达到 55 亿美元规模的 Base 生态,Jesse 最近也在纽约 Meme 黑客松活动上进行了简单的回顾总结,并于近期将内容以 NFT 的形式上架到了 Zora 上面,目前已 mint 超 4000 份;此外, 4 月 24 日宣告成立的 The Based Institute (成立宣言 NFT 同样也已上架 Zora,目前 mint 超 2000 份)。Odaily星球日报将带领大家一起,从这 2 份内容中一窥 Base 生态的未来发展方向。

NYC 4 · 20 Memecoin 黑客松发言内容

4 月 20 日,由 Li Jin 参与发起的 Memecoin 黑客松于纽约开启,Jesse Pollak 也以 Base 生态协议负责人的身份出席并做了一份 PPT,对 Base 生态以及 Memecoin 的正面作用给出了自己的肯定,以下为编译内容:

何为 Base 链上生态?

Jesse 首先对 Base 链上生态的愿景和使命做了简单介绍:

  • 愿景: 100 万+ 的建设者;10 亿+ 用户;链上生态。

  • 使命:打造一个促进创新、创造和自由的全球化链上生态系统。

Base 的愿景与使命

随后,他对 Base 生态的组成部分做出了详细解读:

Base 是一个由 3 个不同组件构成的经济系统——

  • 市场:每个人都能够创建一个具有金融流动性(或非金融流动性)的市场;

  • 生态系统:人们通过使用链上应用进而聚集一堂并实现他们的目标;

  • 平台:我们立志为人们创造一个能够进行链上建设的区块空间。

你可以将这一经济系统与 Web2 进行类比:

  • 市场:苹果公司独霸 30% 的市场;

  • 生态系统:人们使用 IOS 应用程序走到一起并实现他们的目标。(如果你没有 iPhone 手机,不好意思);

  • 平台:苹果公司为人们提供 IOS 开发平台来开发应用程序(这是苹果公司的独家产品,且是全封闭生态)。

你可以将这一经济系统与一个国家进行类比:

  • 市场:美国政府控制市场(或好或坏);

  • 生态系统:人们借助商业活动走到一起并实现自己的目标(如果你不是美国公民,大多数商业活动无法参与,不好意思);

  • 平台:美国通过提供商业或政府平台服务于人们的各类活动(非美国公民基本上无法参与)。

借此,Jesse 向我们展示了一个链上生态的优势和特点:“我们能够打造一个开放、中立、全球化的链上经济系统”——

  • 市场:去中心化治理的自由市场;

  • 生态系统:任何人在任何地方都可以通过互联网参与;

  • 平台:开放标准、无转换成本、全球化的空间。

这一生态系统的价值在于:

  • 服务于所有人;

  • 建设一座联通彼此的桥梁,而非一座孤岛;

  • 去中心化且开源的;

  • 这就是 Base 的意义所在。

而想要实现这一愿景的策略在于:

  • 建立一个强大的开发者平台,使任何人都能够打造世界级的链上产品;

  • 培育一个充满活力的应用生态系统,给消费者和企业一个参与其中的理由;

  • 打造深度的资本市场,使 Base 生态成为互通互联的链上经济中心;

  • 去中心化和规模化,让每个人、每个地方都能加入到链上建设的活动之中。

如何让 Based memes 参与其中?

对于 Base 生态的众多 Meme 项目,Jesse 如此评价道:“我们看到一个异常活跃的 meme 经济正在 Base 生态大放异彩。”

首先,这些 Meme 项目带领成千上万的人们进入了 Base 生态:

Jesse 对 Base 生态 Meme 项目的期待

有鉴于此,Jesse 认为,还要继续不断建设,并且保持 Based 的状态:

  • 做正确的事情;

  • 努力工作;

  • 保持乐观;

  • 团队大于个人;

  • 用创意不断拓展边界。

The Based Institute:Jesse 另起炉灶的研究组织

4 月 24 日,Jesse 发起的 The Based Institute 在 Farcaster 上正式宣告成立,以下为公告主要内容:

我们很高兴正式介绍 The Based Institute(basedinstitute.eth)。

The Based Institute 是一个研究组织,旨在研究“ Based ”的意义,包括术语“ Based ”的起源、The Base God 以及 Base 上的其他早期文化。通过这项研究,我们希望支持 Base 生态经济中乐观、丰富和 Based 专有文化的发展。

作为我们使命的一部分,我们已经开始向全球的“Based 建设者们”免费分发 ETH 和 TYBG 代币,包括早期和活跃的 Farcaster 用户。与 Base 生态“为所有人服务”的价值观一致,The Based Institute 已经支持了超过 6000 名建设者加入 Base 经济体系。在未来的几个月里,随着我们对“ Based ”的意义以及如何负责任地将更多人带入链上世界的理解进一步发展,我们很高兴能够增加更多建设者的参与。

我们也很高兴通过即将启动的社区资助计划开始扩展我们的理解。在 Farcaster 的 /based 频道上发表一篇以“ Based is ”开头的帖子,以赚取 1 ETH 的激励份额。我们很兴奋能够共同扩展我们的理解。

The Based Institute 是一个独立的研究组织,与 Coinbase 或 Base 链无关。The Based Institute 由 Jesse Pollak 以其个人身份资助和领导,与他在 Base 链核心团队上的责任是区分开来且不相同的。

小结:Base 生态的未来在 memes 和生态研究

从以上内容可以看出,一直以来,Jesse 的视角都是从全局出发的,同时,memes 对 Base 生态的用户增长、平台发展、市场扩张等方面产生了极大的积极促进作用,而基于现有的基础和情况,他才会选择建立一个以个人身份为主导的研究组织 The Based Institute ,一方面,是对过往建设者们做出的努力给予肯定和激励;另一方面,则是在提高生态参与者凝聚力、建设生态特有文化氛围以及挖掘更多的生态参与者等方面做出新的增量准备。

换句话说,Base 的未来是基于高度团结的生态参与者们所做出的尝试、努力、服务以及开放流通的市场来建设的,凡是与此相关的项目、组织和个人,都有机会在 Base 生态的发展过程中分一杯羹。

So, stay Based, stay onchain.

Giants Wage the Context War, Reconstructing AI Moats

The article "Giants Launch the Context War, Reconstructing AI's Moat" discusses how leading AI companies—OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google—are shifting their competitive focus from model size to acquiring, managing, and utilizing user context (Context). Initially, Context referred to the length of text a model could process, leading to a "arms race" for longer context windows. However, the competition has evolved through three key phases: expanding text capacity (long context windows), enabling memory across sessions, and finally, integrating AI into real user environments like browsers and desktops to capture dynamic task states. Each company is pursuing a distinct strategy. OpenAI is building Context around the ChatGPT account, turning it into a central hub that accumulates user understanding across various integrated applications and tools. Anthropic, lacking a major user base, focuses on high-value verticals like coding, empowering its Claude model to actively gather Context through GUI interaction (Computer Use) and system connections (MCP protocol). Google, with vast existing user data from products like Search and Gmail, faces the challenge of restructuring this data into actionable, AI-understandable Context for its Gemini model within its ecosystem. The core argument is that the nature of competitive advantage in AI is changing. The internet era prized network effects—connecting more users. The AI era values "individual depth": the ability to build deep, task-specific understanding of a user. This creates a new moat through 1) the compounding value of accumulated Context, 2) deep integration with user tools and permissions, and 3) the establishment of trust for complex tasks. Therefore, the battle for Context is fundamentally about capturing "task entry points" and converting existing digital ecosystems into environments where AI can effectively understand and act, rather than merely scaling user numbers.

Foundation Steps Back, Ethlabs Steps Forward: Ethereum Undergoes Its Largest Restructuring in History

On June 23rd, the Ethereum ecosystem witnessed two major shifts, signaling a significant governance realignment. First, former Ethereum Foundation researchers established Ethlabs, a new independent non-profit. Backed by major ETH holders like Bitmine and SharpLink, Ethlabs aims to address practical needs for institutional adoption, including faster settlement, native asset issuance, cross-chain transactions, and mainnet scaling. Secondly, the Ethereum Foundation announced a major restructuring, laying off 54 employees (20% of its staff) to become a leaner entity focused on protocol governance and maintenance rather than being the primary builder. This move represents a pivotal correction. Criticisms had mounted over the Foundation's perceived slowness, lack of clear strategy, and over-reliance on Vitalik Buterin's influence. Ethlabs emerges as a more execution-oriented, "industrialized" layer focused on market adoption—bridging the gap between research and real-world use. Notably, Vitalik Buterin is absent from its list of supporters, interpreted as an intentional step to avoid excessive personal endorsement and allow the organization to build independent credibility. The Ethereum Foundation's downsizing and redefinition mark a retreat from its former central coordinating role. It now aims to share the "privilege of stewarding Ethereum" with other emerging groups like Ethlabs, the Ethereum Applications Guild, and The Ethereum Economic Zone. Analysts frame this dual shift as the Foundation ensuring Ethereum remains "correct" (credibly neutral), while Ethlabs must prove it remains "effective" (competitive and attractive for capital and adoption). This addresses community "shareholder-like anxiety" about ETH's market performance. While risks exist—such as concerns over shifting from Foundation centrality to large-holder influence—the consensus is that the greater risk for Ethereum was inaction, caught between technical idealism and organizational inertia. These steps aim to create a more multi-stakeholder, execution-driven future for the network.

Second Half of U.S. Crypto Policy: The Clarity Act Aims for 60 Votes, CFTC's "One-Person Commission" Becomes Biggest Variable

In a pivotal year for US crypto policy, the "CLARITY Act" is advancing in the Senate but faces a high hurdle, needing 60 votes to pass. Key challenges include bridging partisan divides on ethics and swaying undecided Republican senators within a tight legislative calendar of only about 40 working days. The policy "second half" involves intense negotiations on a broader framework for Web3 and DeFi, including crypto tax reforms and the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act. A significant uncertainty is the understaffed CFTC, operating with four commissioner vacancies, which complicates regulatory clarity. Meanwhile, the departure of key "crypto champions"—SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce and Senator Cynthia Lummis—will impact ongoing policy efforts. Industry experts are cautiously optimistic but realistic. Sara K. Weed notes that while progress is being made, CLARITY is unlikely to pass this Congress, pushing agencies like the SEC and CFTC to provide more guidance. Sulolit Mukherjee suggests meaningful crypto tax legislation is more likely to be attached to larger must-pass bills. Rashan Colbert discusses the jurisdictional debate over prediction markets, emphasizing the need for a regulatory framework that fosters their development as financial tools rather than treating them broadly as gambling. The clock is ticking, but opportunities remain for substantive progress through continued bipartisan dialogue and pragmatic efforts.

Dan Koe's New Essay: Escaping the Fate of the Wage Slave, How to Survive the AI Replacement Wave?

Dan Koe argues that the true threat in the AI era isn't technology itself, but a reliance on others for one's livelihood and happiness. The core problem is "wage slavery"—spending life on unfulfilling work. To survive and thrive, one must escape this by building their own enterprise. The key is developing five elements: Agency (initiative), Taste (discernment), Persuasion, Persistence, and Iteration. These boil down to problem-solving skills and experiential knowledge, which cannot be learned passively but only through doing your own projects. The solution is to become "unemployable" by shifting your identity. This requires: 1) Radically changing your environment to force growth, 2) Choosing a medium (like content creation) that provides real feedback through trial and error, and 3) Mastering either code or, preferably, media (content). Content creation is more valuable because its subjective nature and need for human perspective create a durable advantage over generic AI output. To start, define your life's work by answering foundational questions about your innate knowledge, unique abilities, and contrarian beliefs. Then, immediately act by publishing your first piece of content. The cycle of creating, receiving feedback, and iterating is the essential path to developing the skills needed for an independent, meaningful career and financial resilience.
