In a recent <a href="https://decrypt.co/videos/interviews/oWMD6y1W/will-base-ever-have-a-token-not-something-weve-ruled-out-entirely-says-coinbases-paul-grewal" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">interview</a>, Paul Grewal, Coinbase’s Chief Legal Officer, shed light on several key aspects of the protocol, emphasizing that the company has not entirely ruled out the idea of issuing BASE tokens in the future.Grewal explained that the primary focus of BASE&#39;s launch was technological adoption rather than tokenization.
