Solana And Coinbase’s Base Connect Together Using Chainlink 2025
Base launched a Chainlink-secured bridge to Solana, enabling crosschain asset transfers between the Ethereum layer-2 and the Solana blockchain.
Solana and Coinbase’s Ethereum layer-2 blockchain Base have been bridged together using Chainlink’s technology in a move to increase liquidity between the two networks.
Base said on Thursday that it launched a bridge connecting it to Solana secured by Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) and Coinbase, enabling seamless asset transfers.
The bridge is now live on mainnet for builders to integrate, and rolling out for anyone to use in apps, including Zora, Aerodrome, Virtuals, Flaunch, and Relay.
Users will also be able to trade Solana (SOL) and many Solana-based assets on Base. Base developers can also integrate the bridge to support Solana assets, such as SPL tokens, natively in their apps.
Solana is the second-largest blockchain by value locked, with $9 billion in assets, while Base is the sixth-largest with $4.5 billion in assets, per DefiLlama. Both blockchains are known for their aim to facilitate trading and low fees.
The bridge is a technical milestone, as it joins Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible chains with Solana’s non-EVM architecture.
Base is also positioning itself as a hub for multichain activity rather than competing solely within the EVM ecosystem, which could give it an advantage as users increasingly want access to assets across different chains without managing multiple wallets.

Both Base and Solana have been primarily used for memecoin minting and trading due to their high throughput and low transaction costs.
