Base APP shifts its focus to "trading first" and introduces more high-quality assets on-chain.

PANews, January 15—According to an announcement shared by Base co-founder Jesse Pollak, the Base APP will undergo a strategic refocus, positioning itself with a “trade-first” core to drive demand and distribution for various assets. The official summary highlighted three points of user feedback: the app previously focused excessively on social features, had a style similar to traditional Web2, and failed to fully support users’ needs for diversified asset trading; there is a strong and widespread market demand for trading high-quality assets; and the information feed should comprehensively showcase on-chain activities, including applications, stocks, prediction markets, and social tokens. Therefore, the Base app will implement specific adjustments: it will prioritize building trading features to drive capital flow into all rapidly growing asset classes; introduce more high-quality assets on-chain; and adopt a “finance-first” user experience design, layering social features (such as copy trading, information feed trading, and leaderboards) on top of financial functions.
