Do BASE (Layer 2 of Coinbase) will be able to propose an airdrop ?

This week, Coinbase announced Onchain Summer where you can mint the first NFT on Base Blockchain to celebrate the launch of the mainnet. This even allow user to interact with the blockchain as early user ... which could be a great advantage in order to receive an airdrop in the future.

But several users are asking if this potential airdrop would be already dead because of SEC procedure against Coinbase. Indeed, Coinbase face a procedure of SEC who argue that their token is a security, and Base could face the same problem. 

What do you think about that ?
