Coinbase is about to flip the switch.
Every @base token, meme or utility, is about to be searchable and tradable by roughly 8 million active @coinbase users.
If you've been building your product, growing your community, and embracing Base infrastructure, you're in position.
Retail is coming.
And this time, when someone searches your ticker on Coinbase, they’re actually able to buy it.
You don’t need a listing anymore.
You just need attention.
This is your window.
Start making noise.
Every day on @base feels like early internet magic.
People shipping, supporting, experimenting — no egos, just energy.
If you get it, you’re already one of us. 🔵

We raised $60M for this moment: Introducing Slash Global USD (in partnership w/ @base).
It's the first banking platform that lets you open a USD account without an LLC, EIN, or the rampant account closures they call "account safety".
It took major legislative changes AND 3 years to pull this off.
Here's what makes it so different:
1. Banking without an LLC. Before Slash: You needed a LLC, $1K in fees, a virtual address, and a U.S. tax ID. With Slash you get a real U.S. account & routing number in ~10 minutes with your foreign documents.
2. No more hefty fees. PayPal charges a 3-4% conversion fee. We let you receive USD and crypto (USDC) with NO fees. Not enough? We pay you up to 4.5% cash rewards just for holding your money with us.
3. Account freezes. The big guys love flagging success as “fraud”. We're built for fast moving founders. We'll never wrongfully freeze your funds. I'm putting my money where my mouth is: If we do, I'll wire $10K to a charity of your choice.
------------------------------
In 2021, I dropped out of the number 1 school in America as a Venezuelan immigrant to build Slash. I pivoted the business 2x before getting our first customer.
Today:
- 3,000 businesses use @slashapp
- We bought the domain Slash . com for $1M
- $4B is spent on our credit cards every year
And we just raised $41M from the people who built fintech: @MenloVentures@NEA@ycombinator@goodwatercap
--------------------------------
To celebrate this launch, we're giving away our internal AI finance Agent free.
It watches your bank accounts 24/7. Flags double charges. Cancels forgotten subscriptions.
It saved us $39,000 last month.
You don’t need a Slash account. It works with any bank.
Retweet + comment “Slash” and I’ll send you a free access link.
. @base chain is rapidly scaling and last night we had a 33 minute halt in block production
the core team immediately jumped on it and resolved, then followed up with a full post mortem below today
appreciate everyone's patience as we grow this economy
How much faster can we go than sub ~1s, fully onchain fills with @base flashblocks?
Turns out, atleast 2x faster.
@PythNetwork's upcoming Lazer oracles will have ~50ms updates, safely enabling <400ms fills on Avantis.
Tick pricing, with zero-fee scalping. Coming soon.
