Things to consider before running a Bulk Send on Base
Base is a fast-growing blockchain, and a pretty attractive one at that. It’s pulling in a growing number of “Degens” hunting for opportunities at all costs, and farming an airdrop is a top priority whenever it’s juicy enough.
Here are the main benefits of running a Airdrop on Base:
- Fast and effective distribution
- Bigger holder count
- Massive reach potential
- Easy to build a marketing campaign around
- Unmatched viral potential
Keep in mind that running the airdrop on Base alone won’t deliver all these benefits. You’ll need to build a complete strategy that generates the FOMO you need to make it profitable.
How much does it cost to run a airdrop on Base Chain?
Base is a ERC20 Layer 2 blockchain, so it follows EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) standards, and every action requires interaction at the smart contract level, which means running a airdrop on Base would require coding knowledge to pull off.
Hiring a developer can get expensive. A baseline of around $200 is realistic, not counting blockchain fees. Base Multisender is the online solution to that problem: for a small fee of 0.001 ETH per wallet, you can run your airdrop without any coding knowledge, whenever you want.
Is Base Multisender safe to use?
Base Multisender handles the smart contract-level work for you behind a simple, easy-to-use interface. As you’ll notice, the permission transactions never request access to any of your assets, so it’s easy to see how safe it is to use for your airdrops.
