Zora Crypto Surges 80% After Base Integration: Will the Rally Last?

[Redator]

Zora crypto is up 80%, pushing July gains to over 650%. This spike follows its integration with Base via the Base App. Brian Armstrong of Coinbase has reportedly deployed a coin.

On a day when Bitcoin, Ethereum, and some of the best cryptos to buy retraced, with Bitcoin dropping below $118,000, Zora crypto soared, posting double-digit gains.

By the close of the July 23 trading session, ZORA, the token powering Zora, surged a massive 80%, outperforming even some of the top Solana meme coins battered by declining crypto prices.

Why Is Zora Rallying? Base Integration

Zora is rallying following its integration with Base, an Ethereum layer-2 platform developed by Coinbase, a leading crypto exchange. This integration introduced Creator Coins on Base.

Notably, this development follows Base’s launch of the Base App, a dApp designed to change content tokenization by integrating Zora’s infrastructure with Farcaster, a decentralized social media protocol.

The Base App enables Zora users to create and trade tokens tied to Farcaster posts. Unlike NFTs, these tokens are fungible, transferable, and highly liquid.

Effectively, the Base App positions Zora as the backbone of the new creator economy on this popular layer-2 platform.

This integration allows for the virality of social media posts on Farcaster to be combined with tokenization and financialization on the blockchain.

How Zora works:

+ Every post you make becomes a coin—meaning it's tokenized and tradable.
+ Your profile is also a coin. It's called a creator coin.
+ Every post you make is paired with your creator coin.
+ As your posts gain attention, so does your creator coin.
+ All…

Through Zora, content creators can monetize their work on Base via the Base App. At the same time, millions of layer-2 users can speculate on these tokens, even earning decent profits.

On-chain data reveals that over 1.3 million Creator Coins have been created, generating more than $353 million in trading volume.

Interest is surging: Over 179,000 unique creators are tokenizing their posts, and more than 2.8 million coin traders trade on the protocol, which has distributed over $1.8 million in coin rewards to creators.

Something tells me that 99% of the crypto world doesn't yet know that @brian_armstrong has (stealthily) deployed his first token ever, and it exists on @zora.

If you’re reading this now, that means you're extremely early. Thread loading with full lore.

They’ll all find out soon…
