What coin does zk-rollup use? or just base Ethereum?

the current solutions do 'native fees' which means you pay the fee in whatever you are sending. This can't really last because I could create SPAM coin with 1B marketcap and overload the network with it.

IIRC they'll eventually create their own native token when their EVM compatible rollup is out.

It can use any coin. You can send ETH or any token, including stable coins such as DAI or USDC.
