Proposal for $SOFT Token Migration to Base

WHAT

We propose to migrate the $SOFT token to the Base blockchain to leverage its enhanced features and scalability. This transition involves utilizing the Base Migrate tool developed by Njoku, which simplifies the migration process technically. Before proceeding, we’re looking to initiate a community-wide discussion to gather information, address concerns, and garner community support.
