🟦 Base Meme Summit Returns: The Official Platforming Memes—A Signal or Just Hype?

On October 20, Base officially announced that its community-led Meme Summit is back, describing it as ā€œa community event for meme coins on Base.ā€

šŸ”¹ Time: October 22 at 15:30 UTC (23:30 Beijing time on October 22), livestreaming on X
šŸ”¹ Agenda: Interviews with meme project leads, announcements from the Base team, and community Q&A
šŸ”¹ The official post currently has about 377 likes and 119 replies. Quite a few people are showing off pixel-art ā€œattendee cardsā€ generated at hello.base.org/meme-summit
šŸ”¹ Some projects are already riding the wave: one team claims that more than 20 Base projects are joining forces to release 10,000 ā€œlucky bags,ā€ with minting set to begin on summit day. They’re also touting a whitelist at half price.

My take: An L2’s official team dedicating a livestream to memes shows that blockchains are competing not just for developers, but also for ā€œattentionā€ and community sentiment. But providing a platform doesn’t mean an official endorsement. What’s really worth listening to is what the Base team announces—not whoever shouts the loudest on stage.

One more reminder: ā€œlimited-time whitelists,ā€ collaborative lucky bags, and phishing links tend to pop up around events like this. Double-check official accounts before minting, and don’t click unfamiliar links when emotions are running high.

Would you stay up late to catch the livestream? Do you think it’s a good thing for L2s to embrace memes, or does it just fuel speculation?
