Base did a great job of making people believe it is the best place for consumer crypto. But in reality, Polygon PoS has it even better (any exchange can onboard onto Polygon), and it has more real apps and consumers than any other EVM chain (and only 2nd to Tron in activity.)

I honestly don’t think this is broadly true. There are some CT bubbles that might, but from speaking with builders, most consider polygon in their top 3 chains to build on. And onchain data doesn’t lie - polygon has the most activity among EVM chains.
