Optimism

Scaling Solutions

Optimism is a network of chains called the Superchain, built on the open-source OP Stack. Chains like Base, Unichain, and Ink use the OP Stack. Every OP Chain contributes revenue to the Optimism Collective through a standardized model, aligning incentives and reinvesting in ecosystem growth. OP holders govern protocol upgrades and funding.
