BASE DINAL DOCUMENTATION

Learn the architectural blueprint of BASE-20 inscriptions, indexing ledger logic, and how calldata is utilized to record state changes directly on the blockchain.

SECTION 01 // OVERVIEW

What is Base Dinal & BASE-20?

Base Dinal is the native inscription protocol platform built for Base Mainnet.

Unlike traditional ERC-20 tokens that require deploying complex, costly smart contracts on-chain, BASE-20 inscriptions leverage standard EVM transaction calldata to store registry data.

By encoding operations as raw UTF-8 JSON text files inside transactions, users bypass smart contract computational overhead, lowering network gas fees to fractions of a cent.

🚀 99% Gas SavingTransactions are low-cost (0.088 USDT0) transfers, requiring basic gas fees.

🛡️ Maximum SecurityNo contract logic runs on-chain, eliminating vulnerability vectors and exploits.
