We took the word of @base to Covenant University @CUHEBRON.
> We preached Base
> We onboarded to the @baseapp and the ‘Base on Campus’ Community to ensure that they stay Based; and
> We gave out USDC
Bringing the world onchain is a gradual process, but with support, collaboration and the mindset to keep building, we can make it happen.
It’s still day one guys.
See you on the next Campus.
Stay Based🟦.
WE TOLD STUDENTS ON CAMPUS ABOUT BASE.
Yes, the plan was to do something special on our 5th Campus visit in Ugbowo and we did.
Unlike the previous campus visits were we spoke to a group and provided enlightenment about the @base ecosystem and the global economy; this time we decided to do some actual onboarding.
< we found a group of students
< told them that they all could earn from their creativity regardless of background.
< told and showed them how Base has particularly changed my life the past few months
< introduced them to @zora
< showed them how they use their X accounts as a tunnel to drive value to their creator coin.
< launched their creator coins
< made their first posts
< earned THEIR FIRST cryptocurrency (sent them some of $theonboarding tokens)
< excited, now they want to know more and do more to earn more
< added them to the ‘Base on Campus’ community.
A lot of questions answered, a lot of insights shared, was a beautiful moment all round.
Why do I do this?
It’s simple, because I believe.
You should too.
And the truth is, it’s just Day 1. Alot is cooking and we’re scaling.
The onboarding process would take a ton of effort, that’s why coming 2026, you just have to be based.

Stay based.

3 players from the GameStock community won $800 each from the World Series of finance tourney including my sister 🔥
It was $8 to join
And the return was a 100x
All they had to do was join , and lock in with their virtual funds to pick stocks they believe can rally hard during 1 month
And ofcourse make smart decisions if they ever had to edit to switch stocks .
3 things you can’t escape in this life is :
- SAVINGS
- INVESTMENT
- RISKS
And Gamestock has it all.
You can get on the app, check rips pack section, open rip pack and get a stock including a bonus which will be paid has a dividends to you every month for 24 months
Some players have unlocked $10 bonus from opening a $10 pack and they will get the $10 bonus every month
That’s a great way of saving and investing with great returns
Then players are risking it and buying in on tourneys for a chance at 3x, 2x, 50x and so on
What are you waiting for anon?
The next tourney starting soon is the wolf financial tourney with $1000 pool and $100 for top 10:

Get started now : REF CODE = POKERX

Conviction gets harder when there’s more noise.
In fast-moving markets, the edge isn’t just finding interesting projects - it’s knowing what you’re actually looking at before the timeline gets loud.
That’s why research, context and reputation matter more as the ecosystem grows.
Less chasing narratives. More understanding the signal.
That’s the direction we’re building toward with Mentra. 🔵
i will continue to tell you that the hardest part from here throughout the rest of the bull market will be in strengthening your conviction & staying in the obviously good spots
even the most bullish voices from the lows in June are already shaky bc of how much profit they're sitting on
ability to shift mindset from short term to long term is how you capture the most PNL in markets that are heavily momentum driven
very little reason to believe that Bitcoin will not make a new price ATH following the shortest and weakest bear market in two decades of its history, especially given this run up is occurring at a moment in time where there is increasing worry about how untenable the US Debt situation is

POV: @brian_armstrong in Singapore for 48 hours 🇸🇬
From coding sessions to conversations with @baseapac builders and @TheBonnieChang, we followed Brian through a packed couple of days in the lion city.
Here's what went down during Brian's visit ↓

HOW DOES BASE WIN?
4 solid builders in the space, shared their feedback and their thoughts on this question in the just concluded @base Builder Roundtable 002, hosted by @buildonbase.
Here’s a summary incase you missed it.
@xipzer from @BaseStonk
0:00–0:59
“Base should do more to amplify high quality ecosystem projects and builders through its official channels, regardless of market cap. Builder/project amplification is a high-impact area for ecosystem growth.”
@taowatts from @aeroxyz
1:14–3:25
“Base should continue building deep liquidity for tokenized equities while identifying and leading emerging narratives such as payments, agents and onchain trading. Early leadership can bring users, capital and activity.”
@DonJohnsonSays from @virtuals_io
3:25–4:43
“The opportunity goes beyond trading tokenized assets. Builders can create new primitives and applications around them, including agents, lending and tokenized communities.”
@Dannyhbrown from @bankrbot
4:43–8:08
“Short term: support the best builders with tools and infrastructure.
Long term: agents will optimize for speed, cost and execution rather than chain preference. Base’s infrastructure and Coinbase’s distribution could therefore become major advantages for bringing onchain products to mainstream users.”
Base is indeed set to show more support and recognition to builders “in the trenches,” with more initiatives around this coming soon.
Keep building, keep innovating, keep experimenting, keep contributing to the Global economy.

YOUR STOCKS BUT WITH SUPERPOWERS.
The unlock with Tokenized stocks on @base and how it contributes to the global economy is one I’m keen on seeing.
It beats traditional stocks by a mile. Yield maximized, stocks fractionalized and 24/7 access is huge.
You avoid all the hassles that the traditional systems present like taxes on capital gains, rigid structures that makes it difficult to access your own stock etc.
Shout out to the just concluded base builders quest that had a lot of focus on enabling access to these tokenized stocks in fun and innovative ways.
Really looking forward to what’s to come of this and the various other ways these tokenized stocks can be utilized.

The older you get, the more you notice that people don’t always want solutions.
Sometimes they tell you a problem because they want someone to sit with them inside it.
You start giving advice and they’re getting annoyed.
You thought they wanted an answer.
They just wanted company.

calling every meme community building on @base right now:
it’s time to get fucking loud.
make more memes. make more fire content. make people laugh. tell your story. raid the timeline. create shit that’s too good to ignore.
X is becoming an even bigger discovery layer for markets. attention on this timeline is about to matter more than ever.
but do it based.
do the right thing. work hard. stay optimistic. put the team first. push creative boundaries.
competition is good. compete your ass off. but we don’t need to spend all day PvPing each other or FUDing the chain we’re trying to grow.
a rising tide lifts all boats. we all win when Base gets bigger.
your meme can be someone’s front door onchain. then they discover the markets, the apps, the builders, the creators and everything else being built here.
I see a new wave of communities forming on Base right now that are hungry af and ready to build culture again.
the window is open. take it.
stay based. let’s run it back.
