#Base Team Announces Implementation of Permissionless Proof of Failure on October 30 to Promote Network Decentralization

The Base team announced that it will implement permissionless proof of failure on its Ethereum Layer 2 platform on October 30, aiming to achieve network decentralization and eliminate control by a single entity. This initiative marks an important milestone for Base on its path to decentralization.

Base was launched in August 2023, developed based on the Optimism OP Stack software package, and has now become the largest Layer 2 aggregation platform by total value locked on Ethereum. The introduction of proof of failure draws on similar deployments on the Optimism main chain, further enhancing the security and transparency of the network.
