Base, the Ethereum Layer 2 network developed by Coinbase, recorded $4.7 billion in net inflows since the beginning of 2026. This metric reflects the total capital arriving on the chain after accounting for outflows.
The network reached a record total value locked (TVL) of approximately $6.2 billion on September 22, 2026. By early October 2026, the TVL grew to around $6.4 billion, while the total bridged value reached $8.28 billion.
Growth is driven by DeFi protocols, including Morpho, and the expansion of the stablecoin market, which currently stands at approximately $5.2 billion. USDC accounts for roughly 84% of the stablecoin supply on the network.
Tokenized stocks on Base achieved a daily trading volume of $71 million as of October 2026. The network currently ranks among the leading Layer 2 solutions in terms of transaction throughput and liquidity.
