Basenames in short
Basenames are names on Base that point to a wallet address. They end in .base.eth and are built on ENS, the Ethereum Name Service, so many apps and wallets can read them.
What you can do with one
- Get paid by name. Friends can send to yourname.base.eth instead of copying a long address.
- Show a profile. Add a picture, a short bio and links to your socials.
- Be recognised. Apps that support Basenames show your name instead of 0x numbers.
How to get a Basename
- Go to base.org/names and connect your wallet.
- Search for the name you want.
- Pick how long to register it for and confirm the payment in ETH on Base.
- Optionally set it as your primary name so apps show it for your wallet.
Shorter names cost more, and names are registered for a period of time, so remember to renew yours.
Basenames and safety
A name makes sending easier, but check it carefully: scammers register look-alike names too. When in doubt, compare the full address.
