Recently, Base launched a Solana cross-chain bridge, claiming it can directly transfer tokens from Solana to the Base network. Sounds pretty cool, right? But in reality, user activity has been a bit sluggish.

Looking through BaseScan’s data, as of 3 PM today, the bridge contract (0x3e...5188) has only processed 60 transactions in total. Even more awkward, the latest token cross-chain transaction happened 6 hours ago.

This usage rate is a stark contrast to the initial hype when it launched. Is it due to technical barriers, or is user demand not that strong? Or maybe everyone is still in a wait-and-see mode? After all, when it comes to cross-chain bridges, security is always the top priority.

60 transactions? This is the answer Base gives us? Hilarious. --- Honestly, it's still the security concerns that are scary. Who dares to be the first to try it? --- The half-life of hype around cross-chain bridges is really short. Don’t even mention Solana. --- Observing? I think no one actually needs it. --- Calling it a "technical barrier" is too polite; the main issue is lack of trust. --- Yet another project with a big launch and then quietly fizzles out. --- Base ecosystem looks prosperous, but in reality, it's ice cold. --- Why not just play directly on Solana? Why bother bridging? --- No transactions for 6 hours, this bridge is probably just for show.

60 transactions? That's so awkward. It feels like it was pushed out just to ride the hype.

60 transactions? Dude, that's just for show. As soon as the hype dies down, it goes right back to what it was. Cross-chain bridges are always like this—big fuss when they launch, but hardly anyone actually uses them. Security is probably the main reason, since too much money has been exploited through cross-chain stuff. Solana’s ecosystem doesn’t really have much use on Base anyway, it’s a bit awkward. This is a typical case of "cross-chain for the sake of cross-chain," there’s really not much user demand.

60 transactions? That’s so awkward. Feels like another overhyped project. Seriously, with so many cross-chain bridge security incidents, I don’t dare to mess around. I’m just observing for now, let the pros go through the pitfalls first. By the way, the Solana ecosystem is already super competitive, do users really need to move to Base? That’s how these niche bridges are—they get hyped up a lot in the beginning, but users just don’t come.

60 transactions? That level of activity is pretty mediocre. Seems like everyone is still too hesitant to use it.
