Welcome to Golem Base 👋
Golem Base is a Layer 2 Network deployed on Ethereum, acting as a gateway to various Layer 3 DataBase Chains (DB-Chains).
Built as an open, trustless, permissionless, and serverless platform, Golem Base is designed to enable cost-efficient data management within Web3 while maintaining the familiar Web2 database interaction standards, such as query languages.
- Extendable Data Availability Layer
- Aligned with Ethereum Ecosystem
- Composable, Versatile & User-controlled
🚀 Proof of Concept is Live
You can now explore what Golem Base is all about.
We've shipped our first working PoC — it’s minimal, open, and ready to be hacked on.
🛠️ Get Started with the CLI
👉 golembase-demo-cli
The CLI connects to our public test PoC endpoint — no local setup needed. Just install and start experimenting.
🐳 Prefer Local Development?
Spin it up in minutes with Docker:
Docker Compose Setup
Once it's running, use the local CLI tool like this:
go run ./cmd/golembase [command from the CLI docs above]
In this setup, the CLI will connect to your locally running services — perfect for development and debugging.

- Potential real-world use cases
🧑🚀 Get Involved
Golem Base is being developed in the open — and we're just getting started.
If you're interested in decentralized infrastructure, Ethereum scalability, or advancing on-chain data systems, we’d be glad to have you onboard.
Golem Base was born from a need inside Golem Network — and grew into its own thing.
Built by an independent team committed to the idea that data autonomy should be the norm, not the exception
