Your Recovery Phrase is the master key to your self-custody wallet. If you ever lose your device, it's what allows you to restore access to your funds. here's something many Base App users don't realize:

Important: If your Base App wallet was created using email or a passkey, you may not have a Recovery Phrase. This guide applies to wallets that were created with or imported using a Recovery Phrase.

Here's how to check:

Step 1: Open the Base App.

Step 2: Tap your profile picture.

Step 3: Open Settings.

Step 4: Select Manage Wallet Settings.

Step 5: Tap Recovery Phrase.

Step 6: Read the security warning and tap Reveal.

Step 7: Complete the verification to securely view your Recovery Phrase.

Keep these security tips in mind:

• Never share your Recovery Phrase with anyone . • Base or Coinbase Support will never ask for it. • Store it offline in a safe and secure location. • Anyone with your Recovery Phrase can access your wallet and funds. • If your wallet was created with email or passkey, it's normal if you don't see a Recovery Phrase.

Taking a minute to check your wallet backup today could save you from permanently losing access in the future.

Stay safe. Stay in control. Stay Based .

Many Base App users have recently noticed their wallets getting filled with random low-value or spam tokens.

After trading, interacting with apps, or receiving token drops, your wallet can quickly become cluttered with unwanted assets. In many cases, these tokens are worth almost nothing and only make your portfolio look messy.

This has created confusion for many users because their wallet starts looking overloaded with useless tokens, making it harder to track important assets.

The good news is that Base App already gives you a simple way to clean things up.

Here’s how you can hide spam or unwanted tokens:

Step 1: Open Base App and go to your wallet Check your token list and identify the token you want to remove from view.

Step 2: Select the unwanted token Tap on the token to open its details page.

Step 3: Open token options Tap the three-dot menu (⋯) in the top-right corner.

You’ll see options like:

Copy address

Dexscreener

Hide

Mark as spam

Share

Step 4: Choose Hide or Mark as Spam

Hide → Removes the token from your wallet view

Mark as Spam → Helps flag suspicious or scam tokens

Once hidden, the asset will no longer appear in your main asset list, making your wallet much cleaner and easier to manage.

Important things to know:

• Hiding a token does not delete it from the blockchain

• It only removes it from your wallet display

• You can unhide it later if needed

• Marking spam helps improve wallet safety for everyone

This is especially useful if your wallet is filled with dust tokens, spam airdrops, or random coins you never intended to hold.

If your Base wallet feels crowded, this is the easiest way to organize it in seconds.

I’ve noticed many builders and users are confused because their mini apps are no longer appearing in Base App search, even though the apps are still live and accessible through direct links.

This has caused concern, especially for builders who can still see their app analytics and dashboard activity but can’t find their app through search.

Here’s what’s happening.

Recently, Base App made changes to its search system to improve security and user safety.

The main reason appears to be the growing number of scam, spam, and phishing apps entering search results.

To reduce risk, Base has limited search visibility and is currently prioritizing verified or authorized apps in search indexing.

Because of this, many legitimate mini apps may temporarily not appear in search results.

Important to understand:

• Your mini app is not necessarily removed

• Your app may still be live and working normally

• Users can often still access it through direct links

• This issue is affecting multiple builders, not just one app

So if your app is missing from search, don’t panic.

It does not automatically mean your app is broken or delisted permanently.

For now, the best thing to do is:

• Check if your app is accessible via direct link

• Monitor updates from the Base App team

• Follow official developer channels for announcements

This looks more like a search indexing and security adjustment not the end of your mini app.

Hopefully Base improves search visibility soon while keeping users protected from malicious apps.

I’ve noticed many users are confused after trying the new Base desktop app and seeing a different wallet address from the one they use on mobile.

The main reason usually comes down to how the wallet was originally created or imported.

Right now, Base desktop mainly supports login through:

email

passkey

This means the wallet you see on desktop depends on the login method you use.

If you created your wallet with email or passkey, using the same login method on desktop should give you access to the same wallet.

But if your wallet on mobile was imported using a recovery phrase or another wallet, things can look different.

That’s why some users see a completely new wallet address on desktop.

The important thing to know is:

Your funds are not lost.

Your wallet is not gone.

This is mostly a wallet access and compatibility difference between mobile and desktop.

Before panicking, check:

how your mobile wallet was created

which login method you are using on desktop

whether both are using the same account.

Base’s vision has always felt bigger than just scaling transactions or lowering fees.

The bigger opportunity is building products that people genuinely love using.

To me, great products on Base should feel simple, useful, and accessible.

Most people don’t care about complex infrastructure.

They care about products that solve real problems and feel easy to use.

The best apps on Base will likely offer:

simple UX

real utility

low friction

value for everyday users

Whether it’s payments, AI, social, gaming, or finance, the biggest opportunity is building products people want to use daily not just during hype cycles.

Long term, I think the winners on Base won’t just be the loudest projects.

They’ll be the ones creating products people genuinely love.

What you guyss think

What does building something people truly love on Base look like to you?

I’ve noticed many newcomers join Reddit or Base Reddit and immediately start posting.

Sometimes that leads to posts getting removed, low engagement, or in some cases even account restrictions.

Before posting, I think every newcomer should understand a few important things.

First, take time to understand how Reddit works.

Reddit is very different from X or Discord.

subreddit has its own rules, culture, and posting standards.

Second, always read both Reddit rules and Base subreddit rules carefully.

A lot of problems happen simply because people post without understanding the rules.

Third, try to earn some karma first.

Comment on posts, join discussions, and engage naturally with the community.

This helps build trust and helps you understand what kind of content people actually value here.

And before posting, always ask yourself:

Is my post following the rules?

Is it useful?

Does it add value to the community?

Good posts usually help people learn, start meaningful discussions, or share useful information.
