“Tomorrow (July 30th) is a big day on @base. Following last week’s successful gas target increase from 8.75Mgas/sec to 9.375Mgas/sec, tomorrow it will be notably increased even further to 10Mgas/sec, marking entry into the realm of double-digit Mgas/sec on Base, near the first anniversary of its launch.”
