Coinbase Ventures推出了Echo，以擴大以太坊頂級L2網絡基礎上的加密開發

加密思考領導人喬丹·菲什（Jordan Fish）（通常稱為“科比”）於2024年3月發起了Echo，目的是使早期舞台上的OnChain Investment民主化。

Base has become Ethereum's top layer two (L2) across several metrics and projects will now have access to onchain startup capital on Echo.

基地已成為幾個指標的以太坊的第二層（L2），現在項目將可以訪問Echo上的Onchain Startup Capital。

Crypto thought leader Jordan Fish, more commonly known as, "Cobie," launched Echo in March 2024 with the goal of democratizing early stage onchain investing. Token launches are notorious for giving venture capitalist (VCs) exclusive early access, allowing said VCs to subsequently make massive profits on the backs of unsuspecting retail investors.

Meltem Demirors, general partner at Crucible Capital, dubbed this phenomenon, "The Sh*tcoin Waterfall" after witnessing the 2017 initial coin offering (ICO) frenzy.

Crucible Capital的普通合夥人Meltem Demirors在目睹了2017年最初的硬幣產品（ICO）Frenzy之後，稱為“ Sh*Tcoin瀑布”。

"All of the 'smart money' or privileged insiders get access to these tokens at massive discounts," Demirors explained during an episode of the Unchained Podcast in 2018. "And then there's this massive waterfall, where they just dump further and further downstream and make lots of money while retail loses out."

Demirors在2018年的《 Unchared Podcast》一集中解釋說：“所有'智能貨幣'或特權內部人士都可以享受這些代幣。”

And now with a more transparent onchain fundraising platform like Echo, Coinbase Ventures' debut of the Base Ecosystem Group hopes to allow community members and actual users to invest and support their favorite crypto startups.

現在，隨著Coinbase Ventures對基本生態系統組的首次亮相等更透明的OnChain籌款平台，希望允許社區成員和實際用戶投資並支持他們喜歡的Crypto初創公司。

"Like us, Echo believes in democratizing access to investing so more people can back groundbreaking startups," Coinbase Ventures posted on X. "Access should be broader, capital should be more dynamic, investing should be for more than just a small club of insiders."

“像我們一樣，Echo相信對投資的訪問來民主化，以便更多的人可以支持開創性的初創公司，” Coinbase Ventures發佈在X上。“訪問應該更廣泛，資本應該更具動態性，投資不僅僅是一個小型內部人士。”

It should be noted that investing in Echo is still only available to accredited and qualified investors. But even then, that is a much larger cohort than the small exclusive pool of crypto VCs.

應當指出的是，對Echo的投資仍然只能用於認可和合格的投資者。但是即使那樣，這還是一個比小型加密VC池大得多。
