# Base Network by CoinBase

XtremeGPT operates on the Base network by Coinbase, a Layer 2 Ethereum chain. This network provides a secure, cost-effective, and developer-friendly environment for building and scaling blockchain applications.

### Key Advantages

#### Security

The Base network leverages Ethereum’s robust security framework, ensuring that all transactions and smart contracts are executed with the highest level of security. Coupled with Aerodrome’s built-in MEV bot protection, Base ensures safe and seamless transactions for XTGPT users, free from malicious interference.

#### Cost-Effectiveness

By utilizing a Layer 2 solution, the Base network significantly reduces transaction fees compared to the main Ethereum chain. Base’s near-zero transaction costs (averaging $0.03 per transaction) make XtremeGPT highly cost-efficient, enabling seamless, affordable access for all users.

#### Developer-Friendly

The Base network offers an intuitive and powerful development environment, enabling developers to build, deploy, and manage applications with ease. This fosters innovation and supports rapid iteration of new features, such as XTGPT’s advanced AI integrations and dynamic token mechanics.

#### Scalability

With its advanced scalability solutions, the Base network can handle a high volume of transactions, ensuring smooth and efficient operations even during peak usage times. Base’s rise to the second spot among L2 solutions underscores its scalability and reliability, supporting the growth and widespread adoption of XtremeGPT.
