- Base introduced Flashblocks, Base Appchains, and Smart Wallet Sub Accounts for better efficiency.
- Flashblocks make transactions 10 times faster with 200 millisecond confirmations.
- Smart Wallet Sub Accounts simplify on-chain interactions for users.
The foundation is revolutionizing blockchain performance by three breakthroughs: Flashblocks, Base Appchains, and Smart Wallet Sub Accounts. All three aim to achieve speed, scalability, and user experience to place Base among top Ethereum Layer-2 solutions.
Faster Transactions with Flashblocks
Transactions in blockchain have been getting increasingly faster through Flashblocks. The foundation has solidified itself as the speediest EVM chain by cutting down block confirmations to just 200 milliseconds from an original pace of two seconds. This instant speed in transactions is making decentralized app (dApp) engagement faster and easier to interact with.
Flashblocks employ an advanced block propagation method created in collaboration with Flashbots. As opposed to waiting to build complete blocks, nodes get streamed transactions in real time to realize instant confirmations while maintaining security. Flashblocks can be experimented with by developers in Base Sepolia testnet before rolling out in full in Q2.
Scalability is blockchain’s most notable challenge, particularly in apps with high usage. Base Appchains provides Layer-3 scalability through reserving exclusive block space for an app. This does not congest the network and reduces gas prices by excluding interference by traffic from other apps.
Some projects have already deployed Base Appchains. Blocklords game platforms and Metacade game platforms leverage improved performance and reduced latency.
Both Proof 8 and MVL utilize Appchains in actual applications, being adaptable in this manner. Developers have various aspects to configure in order to better match their requirements in their Appchains, including fee systems and gas tokens.
Simplified User Experience with Smart Wallet Sub Accounts
It is cumbersome to manage several blockchain accounts, yet this is an aspect that is simplified by Smart Wallet Sub Accounts. This functionality sums up various accounts to an overall wallet to prevent handling individual assets separately.
Smart wallet sub-accounts both enhance convenience and security. Authorization to spend and hierarchy in owning assets provide better management over assets.
Users will experience fewer approvals and pop-ups to complete during transactions to interact with blockchain apps in an easier way. Developers can now integrate Smart Wallet Sub Accounts with full rollout expected in Q2.
