We should be able to use different bases for easier decoding/encoding, and easier color picking.
This is what the block would look like:

(convert () to base (16) with digits (0123456789ABCDEF))
set [ v] to [] in base (16) with digits (0123456789ABCDEF)

And the default for the base will be 10.

The benefits would be more convenient base conversion, easier hex codes, better cloud data, and cloud variables being able to have a bigger decimal value!

Technically scratch already haves Base 16.

when green flag clicked
set [my variable] to (join[0x] [ff])

Yes, Scratch has support for converting binary, hexadecimal and octal to decimal.

((join [0x] [ffffff]) + ()) // hexadecimal --> decimal: 16777215
((join [0b] [11111111]) + ()) // binary --> decimal: 255
((join [0o] [12345]) + ()) // octal --> decimal: 5349
