This development marks a seismic shift from previous Coinbase guidance, which had maintained that there were “no plans” for a token, and opens the door to a lucrative airdrop for early users of the sixth largest crypto network in existence.

While there are no definitive token plans at this time, the soft confirmation makes now an excellent time to position for a prospective BASE airdrop.

*Here are five tokenless opportunities to hunt while positioning for the BASE airdrop. 🪂👇*
