In October 2024, the team launched Fault Proofs based on the OP Stack&#8217;s fault proof system. The solution entails:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>permissionless proposals: anyone can make claims about the state of Base, eliminating the need for a central party;<\/li>\n<li>unauthorized challenges: if an erroneous or fraudulent claim is made, anyone can contest it within 3.5 days by running open-source challenge software, with economic incentives for successful challenges.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The second main requirement for achieving Stage 1 was the decentralization of contract upgrade control. To this end, a Security Council was established, consisting of 10 independent entities from various jurisdictions.<\/p>\n<p>To reach consensus, the structure, together with Base and Optimism, must pass a 75% threshold for approving an upgrade. This mechanism ensures that no single party has the authority to make changes unilaterally.<\/p>\n<p>Back in January, developers of leading L2s on Ethereum, including Base, <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/ethereums-l2-developers-agree-on-implementing-based-rollups\">agreed<\/a> to work on implementing so-called \u201cbase rollups\u201d to enhance security and reduce network fragmentation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Developers of the L2 solution Base for Ethereum have announced that the network has reached the first stage (Stage 1) of decentralization as a step towards building an open on-chain economy.
