Common Is Live on Base
Common is fully deployed on Base. Base-native communities can use Common's infrastructure to coordinate governance, launch tokens, and build engaged communities - all onchain, all on Base.
Why Base
Base is built for builders. It's designed to bring the next generation of users onchain with low costs, high performance, and deep integration with Ethereum's ecosystem. That aligns with what we're building at Common: accessible, powerful coordination tools for communities that want to operate onchain.
We're not just deployed on Base - we're committed to supporting the ecosystem long-term.
What's Deployed on Base
Common's smart contracts are live on Base, which means communities get access to the full coordination toolkit without needing bridges or custom infrastructure.
Token launches Communities can launch tokens directly on Base through Common. No external tools needed.
Onchain namespaces Mint unique community identifiers that live onchain and can be used across the Base ecosystem.
Token-gated access Control who can access discussions, participate in governance, or join specific spaces based on Base-native tokens or NFTs.
Contests and quests Run community challenges and reward participation with onchain incentives.
Native token swaps Through Uniswap integration, members can swap tokens directly inside their community pages. Starting with Base tokens, expanding to omnichain soon.
Who's Building on Common via Base
DeSci Communities
AthenaDAO, VitaDAO, Vita Fast, and Bio Protocol coordinate biotech research and funding on Common through Base. Token-gated discussions, funding proposals, and direct token swaps all happen in one place.
Scientific research coordination is moving onchain, and these communities are leading the way.
Gaming
Teva migrated to Base and uses Common for player governance and community operations. Players aren't just users - they're active participants in how the game evolves.
Community Governance
LinksDAO has used Common on Base to coordinate major decisions, including acquiring physical real estate like golf courses. Digital governance with real-world outcomes - that's the model.
DeFi
bunni.xyz runs its Base-powered community on Common. Token-gated discussions, active participation from DeFi users, and ecosystem development all coordinated onchain.
What This Enables
By operating directly on Base, communities get:
Lower costs - Base's efficient infrastructure means lower gas fees for token launches, voting, and coordination.
Faster deployment - Launch your community and start coordinating immediately, no custom infrastructure needed.
Deep token integration - Native support for Base tokens and NFTs across all coordination tools.
Onchain-first coordination - Everything from governance to access control lives onchain, giving communities true ownership of their infrastructure.
What's Next
We're committed to Base long-term. That means continuing to expand what communities can do on the network:
- Expanding omnichain token swap support
- Deeper integration with Base ecosystem tools and protocols
- New coordination primitives built specifically for Base communities
If you're building on Base and need infrastructure for governance, token launches, or community coordination, we're here to support you.
