Base Denim entered the mainnet.
Now on Base blocks go every 200 ms - five full blocks per second. There used to be one block every 2 seconds and a preview through Flashblocks. Now the blocks are normal right away, without any intermediate states.
BaseTime has appeared contracts can work over time with an accuracy of a millisecond. Convenient for auctions, orders and everything where it is important to clearly measure time. The usual block.timestamp remained as it was.
B20 also got better:
• the issuer may require transfers to go through the verified party
• one list of addresses can be used both as white and as black
• random sending to the address of the token itself no longer hangs
In general, the network has become faster and more predictable. For trade, payments and regular applications - a good upgrade.
