Articles from the Base Engineering team about our work to build a global onchain economy that increases innovation, creativity, and freedom
To build a global onchain economy, we need to scale. To reach our North Star of 1 Ggas/s, we’re charting a path to achieve 250 Mgas/s in 2025. Our main focuses are: increasing L1 data availability for rollups, improving client execution speed, ensuring fault proofs continue to run as expected, and maintaining a healthy disk usage for nodes.
This post explores how we monitor fault proofs on Base, showcasing the framework and monitoring solutions we've developed in Hexagate to secure the system. Additionally, we share details on our open-sourced custom invariant monitors for use by other OP Stack teams.
Base recently launched Fault Proofs on mainnet, marking a significant milestone in our journey towards progressive decentralization. This is a summary of our work in benchmarking the Fault Proof components to ensure they remain stable throughout our scaling efforts.
Exploring our technical efforts to scale execution layer clients. This post outlines our plan to use Reth for all archive nodes, as well as the continuous ongoing investments we'll make to ensure that Reth seamlessly integrates with the OP Stack.
