Solana and Coinbase's Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain Base have achieved interoperability through Chainlink technology, aimed at enhancing liquidity between the two networks.
Base announced on Thursday that it has launched a bridge secured by Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) and Coinbase, connecting to Solana for seamless asset transfers.
The bridge is now live on the mainnet for builders to integrate and is open for everyone to use in applications, including Zora, Aerodrome, Virtuals, Flaunch, and Relay.
Users will also be able to trade Solana and many Solana-based assets on Base. Base developers can integrate the bridge to natively support Solana assets in their applications, such as SPL tokens.
According to DefiLlama, Solana is the second-largest blockchain by locked value, with assets totaling $9 billion, while Base ranks sixth with $4.5 billion. Both blockchains are known for facilitating transactions with low fees.
The bridge is a technical milestone as it connects Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible chains with Solana's non-EVM architecture.
Base is also positioning itself as a hub for multi-chain activities rather than just competing within the EVM ecosystem, which may give it an advantage as users increasingly seek access to cross-chain assets without managing multiple wallets.
Due to high throughput and low transaction costs, Base and Solana are primarily used for meme coin minting and trading.
Activity on Solana has been declining over the past year, with active addresses peaking at over 6 million in November 2024, then dropping to the current 2.4 million, according to DefiLlama.
Active addresses on Base have also been declining since peaking in June 2025; however, the number of transactions on the blockchain has increased this year, with November's monthly peak nearing 407 million.
The price of Solana tokens did not react to the news, dropping 3% on the day to below $140. Solana is now down over 50% from its all-time high of over $293 in January 2025.
Chainlink also fell about 3% on the day to $14.30. Despite the recent launch of the first U.S. spot Chainlink exchange-traded fund, Chainlink is down 73% from its nearly $53 all-time high in 2021 due to the underperformance of altcoins in the current market cycle.
