Base8
Bitcoin Layer 3 mobile platform is proud to announce its official launch, bringing a seamless and user-friendly solution to the world of cryptocurrency. Designed for both beginners and experienced users, Base8 integrates Bitcoin Layer 2 (L2) solutions such as the Lightning Network for fast payments, Babylon for Bitcoin staking, and Stacks for Bitcoin DeFi. Additionally, the application is one of the first to support SAT (Satoshis), and already offers trading for over 35 other liquid tokens, making Bitcoin utilities and crypto investments more accessible to everyday users.
Bitcoin’s New Digital Bank for the Digital Economy
Base8’s vision goes beyond simple cryptocurrency investments. The platform is developing into a universal digital banking solution for Bitcoin, combining centralized investment with decentralized finance (DeFi) and utilities. Base8 focuses on SAT and is committed to supporting native Bitcoin L2, providing users with a simple and secure way to invest, manage, and utilize crypto assets, with all the advantages of Bitcoin’s decentralized settlement layer, the blockchain.
Alex Shapiro, Co-founder and CEO of Base8, said, “Bitcoin is not just an asset to buy and hold, but that’s how the majority of the two billion people use it.” “We are building Base8 to unlock the potential of Bitcoin by simplifying the user experience while handling complex decentralized integrations.”
Simplifying Bitcoin with SAT
Base8 adopts the minimum denomination of Bitcoin, SAT (Satoshis), to help users transact, invest, and manage assets without dealing with decimals. With its intuitive design combined with institutional-grade security and custody, the application becomes one of the safest and most practical platforms for retail investors. Users can fund their accounts with ACH, SEPA, debit/credit cards, and cryptocurrency deposits, enabling immediate participation in the crypto economy.
Republic Crowdfunding Campaign
With its launch, Base8 has already launched a crowdfunding campaign on Republic, raising $1.24 million and aiming to raise a total of $3.5 million in seed funding after a successful $500,000 seed round in 2023. The campaign has garnered a waitlist of over 31,000 users and nearly 1,000 testers, providing an opportunity for early supporters and crypto enthusiasts to be part of building a project focused on Bitcoin accessibility and the future.
Mohamed Saidi, Co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer of Base8, added, “Base8 is not just an app, it’s a movement to make Bitcoin practical. By joining our crowdfunding campaign, you can become part of our growth and help shape the upcoming Bitcoin economy.”
The funds from the campaign will be used to enhance Base8’s core technology product and L2 integrations, as well as user acquisition plans. The planned 2025 release includes Bitcoin Lightning Wallet, debit cards with Apple NFC, and decentralized features such as staking, yield generation, and cross-chain swaps. These features will transform Base8 into a comprehensive, integrated platform that combines centralized and decentralized services, providing users with the best of both worlds.
