Building an on-chain identity has become a core part of participating in Web3.
However, for many users, maintaining consistent and meaningful on-chain activity across ecosystems is still a challenge.

SurfLayer is designed to simplify this journey. By transforming everyday on-chain actions into structured and trackable interactions, SurfLayer helps users gradually build a verifiable on-chain identity across multiple networks - including Base.

Why Build an On-Chain Identity on Base?

Base is one of the fastest-growing Ethereum Layer 2 networks, backed by Coinbase and built to support scalable, low-cost on-chain activity.
On Base, early participation and real interaction matter more than static wallet balances.

Like other decentralized networks, Base does not rely on traditional user profiles. Instead, reputation and identity are formed entirely through on-chain behavior.

Building an on-chain identity on Base allows users to:

  • Prove real participation beyond holding tokens

  • Establish a visible history of on-chain interactions

  • Be recognized as active contributors within the Base ecosystem

  • Improve eligibility for ecosystem rewards, campaigns, and future opportunities

An on-chain identity is not about self-claimed credentials โ€” itโ€™s built through consistent actions recorded on-chain.

Why Use SurfLayer to Build Your On-Chain Identity on Base?

Convenience

SurfLayer brings multiple on-chain tools into a single, streamlined platform, making interaction with Base simple and accessible:

  • GM On-Chain

  • One-click smart contract deployment

  • Multichain bridging

  • Ecosystem quests

Users can explore and interact on Base without switching between multiple dApps or managing complex workflows.

Low Cost & Efficiency

Base is known for low transaction fees, and SurfLayer is optimized to take full advantage of this.

Actions such as deploying smart contracts or performing daily interactions are designed to remain affordable, enabling users to stay active without high cost barriers.

This makes SurfLayer ideal for both newcomers and experienced users seeking long-term, consistent activity on Base.

Rewards and On-Chain Recognition

SurfLayer introduces SurfPoint, a reward system earned through real on-chain actions performed via the platform.

Additionally:

  • Ecosystem-sponsored rewards are distributed directly to users

  • All participation is transparently recorded on-chain

  • Rewards prioritize genuine engagement rather than passive behavior

SurfLayer acts as a long-term companion for users, tracking activity and rewarding meaningful participation over time.

How to Start Building Your On-Chain Identity on Base

Below is a step-by-step guide to help users begin their on-chain journey on Base using SurfLayer.

  • GM On-Chain can be performed once every 24 hours per network

  • Maintaining a GM streak increases SurfPoint rewards

  • Each GM is recorded as an on-chain interaction on Base

This simple action helps establish daily consistency.

Step 3: Deploy a Smart Contract

  • Deploy smart contracts with one click

  • No limit on total deployments

  • Activity is measured by active days, not contract count

This encourages meaningful interaction beyond basic transfers and approvals.

Step 4: Mint SurfScore

SurfScore is SurfLayerโ€™s on-chain reputation system:

  • Evaluates wallet behavior across multiple dimensions

  • Mints a Soulbound Token (SBT) representing your on-chain score

  • Non-transferable and permanently tied to your wallet

Users can mint a dedicated SurfScore for each supported network, including Base.
Each score reflects real activity specific to that chain.

Step 5: Mint SurfPegu NFT (Optional)

  • Select the Base ecosystem

  • Complete chain-specific quests

  • Earn bonus SurfPoints for full completion

Ecosystem quests guide users through meaningful interactions within the Base network.

Conclusion

Building an on-chain identity on Base is a long-term process driven by consistency and real participation.
With SurfLayer, users can turn simple daily actions into structured, verifiable on-chain signals.

By combining low-cost interactions, intuitive tooling, and transparent reward mechanisms, SurfLayer empowers users to build a credible on-chain identity on Base โ€” one action at a time.
