WHAT'S NEW Clanker's Rainbow Drama [![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/e4/b7/e4b77544-5a37-4f0b-8824-8440aa348476/content/images/2025/09/Group-14--7-.png)](https://www.bankless.com/dashboard)- 🤖 **Rainbow x Clanker Dispute.** Rainbow offered 4% of its future RNBW token to [acquire Clanker](https://x.com/rainbowdotme/status/1970183714304032855), though talks collapsed. Clanker said it "[wasn't the right fit](https://x.com/JackDishman/status/1970255672517201980)," to which Rainbow [asserted a deal](https://x.com/rainbowdotme/status/1970271726203515253) was already agreed upon. - 📈 **PunkStrategy Chugs On.** The new CryptoPunks protocol [bought its 12th 'Punk](https://x.com/token_works/status/1970575512155107448), #5467, on the heels of TokenWorks's first 5 [NFTStrategy](https://www.bankless.com/read/nftstrategy-extending-punkstrategy) token releases, with more launches incoming. - 🎁 **NFT Claw Pulls.** Marketplace giant OpenSea just added [2,000 Beezie claw machine vouchers](https://x.com/opensea/status/1970557181243089025) to its [Rewards Pool](https://opensea.io/rewards), each redeemable for a pull at $100k in Pokémon cards and other collectible prizes. .  .  . PRIMER Creating on Base Before BASE Bankless Author: [ William Peaster](https://x.com/wmpeaster) [![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/e4/b7/e4b77544-5a37-4f0b-8824-8440aa348476/content/images/2025/09/image---2025-09-23T120945.347-2.png)](https://www.bankless.com/read/creating-on-base-before-base)"Base is beginning to explore a network token." It was [the announcement](https://blog.base.org/the-state-of-base-at-basecamp-2025) heard 'round the crypto world at BaseCamp 2025. For now, no exact plans have been confirmed, though unsurprisingly people are already clamoring to position themselves for the arrival of the prospective $BASE coin. You *could *go for something like the **double-dip strategy** by [using token-less apps](https://www.bankless.com/read/5-plays-to-double-dip-a-base-airdrop) atop Base, lining up for multiple separate airdrops simultaneously. However, the straightforward **creator strategy** is worth considering, too.

That's the ethos of Base today, but it's *also *a strategy for potentially upping your $BASE allocation, as the Base team will presumably earmark a significant distribution for creators on the chain. How to proceed, then? Base has plenty of apps, so it really comes down to your preferences. Do things you enjoy on platforms you like, and anything beyond that will be icing on the cake. But for instance... **You *could *make NFTs on Base**: - [**Rodeo**](https://rodeo.club/) is a great easy starting point, offering slick Instagram-like UX that turns your posts into digital collectibles. - [**TITLES**](https://titles.xyz/) is another option. It's an onchain AI remixing app that lets you simply mint outputs from custom-trained, community-sourced AI art models. [I have one there you can try](https://titles.xyz/model/1FrjUrsw8Kbh8ZrpEnV8). - [**Manifold**](https://manifold.xyz/) is awesome for DIY NFT drops in general, especially if you want to customize your release styles. - [**thirdweb**](https://thirdweb.com/contracts/modular-contracts) offers pre-built smart contracts, so it's also an option if you want to deploy custom NFT collections. - [**vibe.market**](https://vibechain.com/market), currently in alpha, is a newer avenue to explore where you can release rippable digital card packs.

The [new V4](https://www.bankless.com/read/clanker-v4-token-creator) offers some nice flexibility. - [**Flaunch**](https://flaunch.gg/) is my favorite token launcher *platform*, also on Base. It offers a cool suite of features, from fixed-price fair launches to revenue sharing with coin holders. - [**fxhash**](https://www.fxhash.xyz/)** **pioneered [art coins](https://www.bankless.com/read/fxhash-art-coin), which are ERC-20s tied to generative art collections that allow minting, rerolling, locking, and evolving underlying outputs. Something to explore for creative coders. - [**retake.tv**](https://retake.tv/) is like an onchain alternative to Twitch, where livestreamers launch personal Streamer Coins and can integrate them into their communities. - [**Zora**](https://zora.co/@peaster) is the popular onchain social network, similar to Instagram in general style, that lets you launch a creator coin that you pair against all your tokenized posts. [![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/e4/b7/e4b77544-5a37-4f0b-8824-8440aa348476/content/images/2025/09/image---2025-09-23T111213.915.png)](https://x.com/zora/status/1966198678814863510)**You could simply post content atop Base, too**: - [**Base App**](https://x.com/baseapp), revamped from Coinbase Wallet, is a Farcaster client with a Zora integration so you can just post here or tokenize your posts as you wish. There's a waitlist for now, but [more invites](https://x.com/baseapp/status/1966227740589437073) are starting to roll out. - [**Paragraph**](https://paragraph.com/) is an onchain publishing platform that's great for longform content. The team recently [introduced Coins](https://paragraph.com/@blog/coins), allowing writers to tokenize their articles for patronage. And you can now pair your posts with [your Zora creator coin](https://x.com/paragraph_xyz/status/1956451759959994485), too. The ideas above aren’t exhaustive of what’s possible on Base today, but they do highlight some straightforward ways to ramp up your activity on the L2. And if $BASE *is *inevitable, creating here is one of the clearest ways to prepare!
