Base Expands Its Feed Into a Multi-Asset Trading Hub

[kevin1]

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong added that the Base app will evolve into a broader discovery and trading feed, showcasing assets and applications across multiple chains while keeping Base as the primary hub. This includes exposure to on-chain apps, financial products, and new asset classes within a single interface.

While some developers have criticized Base for prioritizing memes and insiders in the past, the trading-first pivot signals a response to retail demand for integrated financial tools. By anchoring the app around capital flow and discovery, Base aims to move beyond experimental social features and position itself as a serious on-chain trading platform.

Most users come for trades, not vibes.

Discovery follows liquidity, not the other way around.

Finance-first UX is just being honest.
