Gnars DAO is stoked to announce the launch of our Base Jump initiative, a pivotal migration from the Ethereum mainnet to the Base network's Layer 2. This transition represents a significant advancement in reducing our governance friction and slashing gas costs for transactions such as settling, bidding, and voting by over 99%. It's a critical milestone in our mission to onboard a million shredders onchain.
Our four-step migration strategy, developed in collaboration with Builder DAO, guarantees a smooth transition with minimal technical complications. By establishing a new DAO on Base utilizing the Nouns Builder Protocol, Gnars DAO is poised to enhance its accessibility significantly. This strategic move heralds a new era of increased accessibility, community engagement, and innovation within the extreme sports and blockchain communities.

We prefer a world where kids aren't sold energy drinks by their heroes. So as a community of action sports enthusiasts, we've formed a DAO to rethink how extreme athletes get sponsored.
