This PR adds PBTC (PepeBitcoin) as a base token to both the Alpha and Legacy router configurations on Base.
About PBTC:
PBTC (PepeBitcoin) is the primary token of the PepeBitcoin ecosystem. It will serve as the liquidity and payment token for the Token Forge, an upcoming launchpad platform designed for creators to easily launch and grow crypto projects on Base. The Token Forge will include features like Team/Dev allocations with vesting, Staking pools, different pre-sale modes (fixed price, price steps, bonding curve) and whale protection.

Reason for Adding PBTC as a Base Token:
Tokens launched through the Token Forge will have their liquidity pools paired with PBTC. Currently, routing between these tokens and widely-used tokens like WETH often fails because PBTC is not yet recognized as a base token. By adding PBTC to the base token list, swaps involving these Forge tokens will reliably find appropriate trade routes, significantly improving accessibility and user experience.
Current Liquidity Pools:
PBTC/USDT ~$80k liquidity (https://www.dextools.io/app/en/token/pbtc)
PBTC/WETH ~$10k liquidity (https://www.dextools.io/app/en/base/pair-explorer/0xdd3749442c5b31ee03021a93d4ca4ac8aa5b3ddd)
Both pools already maintain significant and growing liquidity, regularly supporting active daily trading.
Including PBTC as a base token is essential for enabling proper routing and ensuring a seamless trading experience within the PepeBitcoin ecosystem.
We are happy to provide additional information.
