i don't have ETH (could not justify using it when transactions were half of an average monthly pay in my country, so never got into buying it) so i can't test it out, but from what i seen i can't get ETH from Binance to Base directly.
So it is kinda depending on where do you have access. Coinbase does not like me. So if you have access to Binance it is much faster and cheaper to go the Hive root. If you use Coinbase, maybe it is Base.

edit:

Just noticed you can't make small transactions. Like buying 1 potion, even if you just need one. I assume that is a limitation of fees on B3/Base.
