On October 2, DEGEN surged in price and trading volume after its inclusion on Coinbase’s listing roadmap and the announcement that Base architect Jesse Pollak joined Coinbase‘s executive team. DEGEN’s price skyrocketed 127%, rising from $0.004 to $0.009 in less than 24 hours, while its trading volume leapt from $8.5 million to $136.8 million, according to CoinGecko data.
Despite this positive momentum, Base’s first memecoin, TOSHI, saw a decline in traction, with daily active addresses dropping to just 10 to 30, following brief spikes in activity.
Meanwhile, the Base’s Total Value Locked (TVL) continues to rise, reaching $2.189 billion. Data from DeFiLlama shows that daily active addresses stand at 2.08 million, with 24-hour inflows of $6.29 million and a total volume of $829.9 million.
Base Network Growth
Pollak’s influence extends beyond DEGEN, as he now leads the Coinbase Wallet team, signaling potential further integration between the Base ecosystem and Coinbase’s core offerings. The correlation between Base’s token movements and Ethereum (ETH) suggests that keeping an eye on ETH trends could provide valuable insights.
Moreover, on-chain data reveals a close relationship between stablecoin growth and its transaction volume, which saw substantial expansion in early 2024. As market swings continue, the resurgence of bullish activity has contributed to the network’s impressive performance, positioning Base for continued growth in the months ahead.
