However, Base Network still trails behind more prominent blockchains like Polygon and Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Polygon recorded 2.1 million transactions, while BSC had 3.1 million transactions on that particular day.
It’s worth noting that, unlike its previous record in August when Base had 136,000 daily active users alongside high transaction numbers, the layer-2 network had fewer users this time, with only around 86,000 daily active users on September 14, according to data from Dune Analytics.

Since its launch, Base has been well-received by the cryptocurrency community. On September 6, more than 268,000 different wallets minted over 700,000 NFTs on the layer-2 network. In the first two weeks after its launch, over $242 million worth of cryptocurrency assets were transferred to the blockchain, and the network saw 130,000 unique wallets using it daily.
