Research direction
Open docs/base-chain/network-information/network-faucets.mdx and locate the Chainstack Faucet section. Check the current requirements against the referenced Chainstack faucet page, then update the description so it states the 0.08 ETH mainnet balance and prior ETH-holding requirements; the section should no longer mention an API key.

Description
Problem
File: docs/base-chain/network-information/network-faucets.mdx
Section: Chainstack Faucet
The current description states:
"Chainstack Faucet dispenses Base ETH based on your Chainstack platform API key."
This is outdated. According to Chainstack's current faucet page (https://faucet.chainstack.com/base-testnet-faucet), the faucet no longer uses a platform API key. Instead, it now requires:
- A minimum balance of 0.08 ETH on Ethereum mainnet
- A history of holding ETH on mainnet (address should not have been recently empty)
Expected behavior
Update the Chainstack Faucet description to reflect the current access requirements.
