Base Activates B20 Token Standard on Mainnet Today — First Major Upgrade Since June Delay
Base has activated the B20 token standard on its mainnet today, following a delay from June 27 due to stability concerns. The B20 standard is designed to enable faster, lower-cost, and more standardized settlements, allowing global financial assets to function as programmable capital with on-chain composability. This upgrade is expected to support token launches and enhance user experience on the Base network.
Risk reminder: Protocol upgrades carry execution risks. Monitor network performance post‑activation.
