The Base mainnet was released for developers on July 13th, but there was no working UI for bridged from Ethereum at that time. The only way to use the network was to use developer tools to bridge ETH from layer 1 of Ethereum Goes to the Base Network
In an announcement on August 3, the team said that the bridge UI has been released. This allows users to start using the network immediately without having to wait for the official launch. However, some of Base’s default Web3 apps may not be available until the official launch on August 9th.
The team also announced a month-long “Onchain Summer” celebration. Each day, the developers “bring you fun things to do on the network. With an emphasis on art, music, games, and more.” The team will award ETH to individuals or groups that create websites, artwork, and videos related to Base, or who use the new protocol on the network during the day. On August 9th to September 13th, the team will provide Base-related NFT and ETH tokens to users who bridge the network or complete educational “quests”.
