gm r/BASE,

Toady Hawk here from BETRMINT, a dopamine-fueled distribution engine built on Base.

We launched our app in April 2025 because we thought the internet had gotten pretty broken for creators and founders. Amazing builders were launching things every day onchain, but distribution was still brutally hard and the cold start problem was as frigid as ever.

So we asked ourselves:

What if discovery itself felt fun again?

BETRMINT was our answer.

Every day, we feature a piece of onchain content inside a viral neon gamified experience. Users spend $1 USDC to support the featured creator, then receive a ticket to spin the Infinite Neon Flywheel for a chance at variable rewards ranging from small hits all the way up to $20 and $100 jackpots.

But underneath all the spinning and dopamine, something much bigger is happening.

Every spin creates real distribution, and real earning potential for creators.

Our community discover new artists, apps, videos, memes, founders and communities they otherwise never would have seen. Creators earn revenue and attention. Users get entertainment, rewards, streaks, airdrops and bragging rights. And the whole thing creates what we call a positive-sum neon flywheel:

discover → spin → win → stake → earn → repeat

Since launch, BETRMINT has become one of the most popular mini apps in the Farcaster and Base ecosystems, generating over $300,000 in transaction volume and paying out over $80,000 directly to creators and users.

We’re also experimenting with something we think is really important for the future of onchain apps: shared upside.

Our ecosystem token, $BETR, is integrated directly into the product itself. Every paid spin programmatically buys $BETR, while staking rewards are funded by real app revenue, not inflation. To date, over $20,000 has already been distributed back to stakers through rev share.

The community side has honestly become one of the coolest parts too. We’ve got freeroll poker tournaments, art contests, side quests, degen game nights, leaderboard wars and one of the most active grassroots communities on Base.

Excited to answer questions about app coins, Farcaster, Base, creator and founder monetization, token design, community building, internet culture, or where we think onchain apps are heading next.

Winning together is BETR!

Liminal

Hey r/Base 👋 I’m Fifi, co-founder and CEO of Liminal.

We’re building what we call agentic private banking.

Before Liminal, I was a lawyer at cryptodotcom and Gnosis Pay. Jack, my co-founder and CTO, and our two founding engineers came out of Thought Machine, the core banking unicorn that built ledger infrastructure for banks like JPMorgan and Standard Chartered. Between them, they have 15+ years of experience building real banking infrastructure from the inside.

The idea behind Liminal is simple:

The wealthy have always had private bankers. Someone who understands their full financial picture, answers questions clearly, and actually executes. They open the account, move the money, rebalance the portfolio, and manage the household.

Everyone else got apps.

Neobanks gave us buttons.

Robo-advisors gave us portfolios.

Education apps gave us confidence.

But almost nobody built a consumer finance product that actually does the work for you.

That’s what we’re building.

Liminal is a self-custodial, stablecoin-powered financial app with the surfaces a modern household needs:

* High-yield savings on idle balances

* Tokenised US equities with no minimums

* Joint accounts with equal access for both partners

* Multi-currency accounts in USD, GBP, EUR, and BRL

* A debit card, currently in development

Every account is non-custodial, which is what lets us build globally without becoming a traditional bank.

The interface is conversational.

Our agent, Nim, has memory and permissioned read-write access across the Liminal product stack. You can ask it what to do with your money, get an answer based on your full financial context, and then approve execution.

Send the rent.

Move idle cash into savings.

Rebalance a portfolio.

Open a joint account.

Prepare for an upcoming bill.

Move money across currencies.

Nim does the work once you approve.

We’ve processed over $300k in volume so far and are doubling month-on-month.

Ask us anything about:

* Base Batches 003

* Building an agent that actually moves money and why we called it Nim

* Why the execution gap is the missing piece in consumer finance

* What a real onchain bank looks like (beyond “card + wallet”)

* Building globally without holding customer funds

4Mica

Hey r/BASE,

4Mica is next-generation clearing infrastructure for machine commerce.

As AI agents become economic actors paying for APIs, data, and compute through protocols like x402, every payment today either settles individually consuming blockspace, or through pre-funded escrows offering zero capital efficiency.

4Mica changes that: agents deposit stablecoin collateral into non-custodial smart contracts, transact instantly through cryptographic guarantees with zero on-chain overhead per request, and settle only net positions in batch after multilateral clearing.

Thousands of agent micropayments, one on-chain settlement.

Deposited collateral earns DeFi yield while backing payments and is only used on defaults, creating a flywheel that attracts more agents and deepens ecosystem TVL.

4Mica is chain-agnostic and live on testnet.

Docs: https://4mica.xyz/resources/technical-docs

Demo: https://www.loom.com/share/99e098b2e2d1496785bddea1252c3a96

Ask us about the future of agentic economy, why capital-efficiency is important, and how AI will reshape the future of every major vertical in the market. If not these, feel free to be proactive!

Hey Reddit, Felix Bengtsson here, founder of Planet IX.

Planet IX launched in 2021 on Polygon, where it quickly became one of the largest games on the network. At its peak, we had over 200,000 token holders and 50,000 unique wallets interacting with the game each week.

We are a team of 25 people, with 15 based in our Stockholm office. We have built a strong presence in Asia, where the majority of our players are located, many of whom have been with us since day one, grinding and farming every day. The community's confidence in our project is reflected in the numbers: 77% of all tokens are currently locked across our staking protocols.

In December 2025 we began migrating the game to Base, starting with the token and the DeFi layer. Soon after, we launched the farming component of the game on the Base app: IX Meteora. This is an interactive game where you steer a drone through space, collecting resources. These resources can then be refined into Crystals: a stakable asset alongside our native token AIX.

Right now we are running a global campaign together with Base, giving every new user a free Starter Pack when they open the app and try the game. The pack includes game credits to play, Refined Crystals that can be staked, and IX Tickets that will unlock access to events later this year.

That's a broad overview of who we are. Feel free to ask us anything: onchain gaming, our roadmap, the economics or anything in between.

Play the game now - https://base.app/app/base.planetix.com?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=Base_w1

Jpeg

Hey r/Base 👋 I’m Danny from Jpeg.

We’re building a social prediction game where photos become bets.

The simplest version: every day, a theme drops. You take one photo. Everyone collects the photos they think will win. The most-collected photo wins the pool.

Think Instagram, if likes had consequences.

The problem with social today is that attention is extracted, not rewarded. You post, platforms monetize. If you have distribution, you win. If you have taste but no following, you mostly get ignored.

Prediction markets have the opposite problem. They reward being right, but they feel too financial, too serious, and too intimidating for normal people.

Jpeg sits somewhere in between.

We want to make prediction markets feel social, visual, and fun. Less “trade the Fed meeting,” more “which photo best captures today’s theme?”

Creators earn 20% royalties whenever people collect their photos. Collectors win if they back the winning photo. Earlier collectors get more upside through time decay, so it is not just about picking the winner. It is about seeing it early.

The bigger thesis is simple. Likes are cheap. Bets reveal attention.

We’re building this on Base because the rails finally feel good enough for consumer apps. Fast, cheap, abstracted, and increasingly normal. The user should not need to understand crypto to use the app. They should just feel like the internet got more alive.

We’re 1 of 12 teams in Base Batches cohort 003. The app is approved on the App Store. In beta, we’re seeing 64% D7 retention. 

Ask me anything about:

• How the game works
• Why photos make sense as prediction markets
• Building a consumer app on Base
• Creator royalties
• Time decay and collector economics
• Base Batches
• Or the thesis: “likes lie, bets don’t”

We also have 280,000 people on the waitlist. r/Base people can sign up here to be early: 

Website: Jpeg.funX: https://x.com/jpegappI’ll be hanging out here and answering questions. Ask Me Anything!

BlockRun

Hi r/BASE,

I'm Vicky from BlockRun (https://blockrun.ai)

BlockRun is the pay-per-call AI gateway on Base. One wallet pays for chat, images, video, music, web search, market data, and Python sandboxes — 41+ frontier models across every modality, settled in USDC. No API keys, no subscriptions, no monthly minimums. Also live on Solana via the same SDK.

Three products, one wallet. And every product includes a free tier — when your wallet is empty (or you never funded one), requests auto-fall-back to Qwen3-Next-80B (131K context), GPT-OSS-120B, or Z.AI's GLM-4.7 (200K context). 

▸ Product 1 — ClawRouter (smart-routing coding agent in your terminal) ★ 6.3K
ClawRouter is our flagship. It's the smart-routing layer that ships with OpenClaw, our open-source agent runtime. Install once, fund $5, run /model blockrun/auto in any conversation, and ClawRouter automatically picks the cheapest model that can handle each prompt — Gemini Flash for simple, Claude Sonnet for code, GPT-5.5 only when reasoning actually needs it. ~78% lower cost than pinning premium on every call.

  curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BlockRunAI/ClawRouter/main/scripts/reinstall.sh | bash

When the wallet runs dry mid-task, ClawRouter doesn't crash — it routes the next request to the free tier and the agent keeps running.

▸ Product 2 — Franklin (chat-first multimodal agent)
Franklin is our hosted agent. Open it, fund the in-app wallet with $1 USDC, and one chat does everything. "Draw me a Base ecosystem map" → image. "Make a 5-second teaser" → video. "Lo-fi loop please" → music. Same wallet, no tab-switching. Don't want to fund at all? You still get the free chat tier — same 60 req/hr cap, same model menu.
  https://franklin.run

▸ Product 3 — SDK (build your own)
  pip install blockrun-llm        # Python
  npm install u/blockrun# TypeScript (also a drop-in OpenAI shim)

Claude Code user? One line:
  claude mcp add blockrun npx u/blockrun

—— Traction ——

Open-source first, we have handle 2M API call and 100 Trillion LLM tokens. Across the BlockRunAI GitHub org:

  • ClawRouter            — 6.3K ⭐  (flagship smart LLM router)
  • blockrun-mcp          —   464 ⭐  (MCP server for Claude Code)
  • Franklin —   380 ⭐  ( AI agent with wallet
  • Multi-language SDKs   — Python, TypeScript, Go, XRPL

What's live in the gateway right now: 41+ chat models (GPT-5.5, Claude Opus 4.7, Gemini 2.5 Pro, DeepSeek, Grok, Kimi, Qwen, GLM), image (DALL-E 3, GPT-Image-2, Flux, Nano Banana, Grok Imagine), video (Seedance 1.5/2.0), music (MiniMax), web search (Exa, Grok Live Search), market data (Pyth oracles, Polymarket, Kalshi, DEX), Python sandboxes (Modal). Discoverable through x402scan via our /.well-known/x402 endpoint, so any agent on the protocol can find and pay BlockRun without prior integration.

Last week we shipped free-tier rescue across all three products — when an agent's wallet runs dry mid-task, requests downgrade to free models instead of returning 402. Already serving thousands of rescued calls per day instead of crashing agents.

* Free-tier rescue — how it works across ClawRouter, Franklin, and the SDK
* Migrating an existing OpenAI / Anthropic app to pay-per-call in 5 minutes
* Multi-modal workflows (chat → image → video → music in one agent)
* Building on Base specifically — x402, Coinbase facilitator, Solana parity
* Costs for real workloads (running an agent for a day, a month, a year)
* What's open-sourced and what isn't, and why

Looking forward to talking shop.
