connecting-to-base-network

提供基础网络配置，包括RPC端点、链ID和浏览器URL。在连接钱包、配置开发环境或设置Base主网或Sepolia测试网时使用。涵盖诸如“Base RPC URL”、“Base链ID”、“连接到Base”、“将Base添加到钱包”、“Base Sepolia配置”、“Base浏览器URL”、“Base是什么网络”或“Base测试网设置”等术语。

Connecting to Base Network

Mainnet

| Property | Value | |----------|-------| | Network Name | Base | | Chain ID | 8453 | | RPC Endpoint | https://mainnet.base.org | | Currency | ETH | | Explorer | https://basescan.org |

Testnet (Sepolia)

| Property | Value | |----------|-------| | Network Name | Base Sepolia | | Chain ID | 84532 | | RPC Endpoint | https://sepolia.base.org | | Currency | ETH | | Explorer | https://sepolia.basescan.org |

Security

Never use public RPC endpoints in production — they are rate-limited and offer no privacy guarantees; use a dedicated node provider or self-hosted node
Never embed RPC API keys in client-side code — proxy requests through a backend to protect provider credentials
Validate chain IDs before signing transactions to prevent cross-chain replay attacks
Use HTTPS RPC endpoints only — reject any http:// endpoints to prevent credential interception

Critical Notes

Public RPC endpoints are rate-limited - not for production
For production: use node providers or run your own node
Testnet ETH available from faucets in Base documentation

Wallet Setup

Add network with chain ID and RPC from tables above
For testnet, use Sepolia configuration
Bridge ETH from Ethereum or use faucets
