Base-Solana bridge officially launched: Driving $9.15 billion on-chain economic interoperability

Layer-2 network Base has officially integrated with the Solana ecosystem, launching Base-Solana bridging and utilizing Chainlink’s CCIP protocol to enable seamless interchain transfers of SOL and other Solana assets. This move transforms Base from a primarily Ethereum-focused Layer-2 network into a major liquidity hub, significantly enhancing interoperability between the two ecosystems.

The Base-Solana bridge ensures security through a multi-layer verification model, with Base’s backing CEX and Chainlink CCIP nodes acting as independent validators to verify all token transfer messages. This mechanism effectively safeguards cross-chain asset security. Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs, stated that with Chainlink CCIP, Base is advancing the industry toward a more reliable standard of interoperability.

Currently, several decentralized applications (dApps) such as Zora, AerodromeFi, and RelayProtocol have already supported Base-Solana bridging, enabling users to natively trade and utilize Solana assets. The bridge unifies liquidity across Solana and EVM chains, allowing developers to directly support Solana tokens and strengthening the connectivity between the two ecosystems.

Base’s growth metrics are outstanding, with over 880,000 daily active addresses, a stablecoin market cap of $4.488 billion, cumulative transaction volume exceeding 3.7 billion transactions, and peak transaction speeds reaching 140 transactions per second. Base’s total value locked (TVL) stands at $9.156 billion, solidifying its position as a leading secondary security center.

This upgrade marks Base’s step toward becoming the central hub of the “economy of everything,” further promoting global on-chain economic interconnectivity. As more chains join, Base will become the core platform for seamless cross-chain asset flows.
