[Base to Activate B20 Token Standard on Mainnet on July 9] According to official documentation, Base plans to activate the B20 token standard on the mainnet at 2:00 (UTC+8) on July 9. B20 is a superset of ERC-20, operating as a native precompiled contract on Base, which enables lower transfer costs and higher throughput while maintaining full compatibility with ERC-20. Features such as roles, supply caps, pausing, strategy gating, memo, and permit are all built into the chain. The standard ERC-20 leaves these logics for users to construct, audit, and maintain themselves. With B20, developers can create a fully configured token in a single transaction simply by invoking the singleton B20 Factory.
