Base Launches Fault Proofs on Mainnet, Advancing Towards Decentralization
Base, a Layer 2 scaling solution, has announced the launch of Fault proofs on its mainnet. This development allows anyone to raise or question proposals related to the Layer 2 status in a permissionless manner, marking a significant step towards decentralization.
The introduction of Fault proofs is a crucial milestone in Base’s journey to achieve the first stage of decentralization. Another important step is the addition of the Security Council to its contract upgrade key. Once this is implemented, contract upgrades on Base can only be performed based on actions taken by the Optimism Security Council. Furthermore, the Optimism Security Council will only take actions that have been approved by Optimism Governance, ensuring a more decentralized decision-making process.
With the launch of Fault proofs and the upcoming integration of the Security Council, Base is making significant progress in its mission to provide a decentralized and secure Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum.
