Superchain EcoOnChain Indicators of Engaged DAO Voters
Summary:Engaged governance participants were identified as the top 25% of governance voters ranked by voting frequency. Several onchain actions set engaged governance participants apart from the rest, most importantly voting frequency, number of votes, and number of delegates pledged to the participant. Other indicators of engaged governance participants include ENS registrations and the number of decentralized exchange (DEX) trades and NFT activity within the last 60 days.IntroThis research ...

Welcome to Superchain Sunday - our weekly newsletter! Every Sunday, we will provide you with the latest news and updates in the world of the Superchain.
The Superchain accounts for over 61.8% of all Layer 2 transactions and sees 15.6M daily transactions. The network boasts 822 Unique Apps, contributing to the Optimism Collective. It is estimated that 121.6 ETH will be contributed to the Optimism Collective in July. Data Fetched from the Superchain Health Dashboard.
Butter’s Conditional Funding Markets are now live, kicking off a new way to allocate grant funding through prediction markets. In partnership with the Uniswap Foundation, forecasters can now deposit USDC and predict which of four lending protocols—Compound, Euler, Morpho, or Venus—will generate the most TVL on Unichain. The protocol with the top forecasted TVL by July 11 will earn a $100,000 grant, with more funding rounds and rewards to follow in August.
This marks the first time Butter’s futarchy mechanism is being applied in the Uniswap ecosystem, following a similar experiment with Optimism Governance earlier this year. Forecasters are rewarded based on accuracy when the market resolves on August 10, and all participants are encouraged to review public plans from each protocol before making their bets. Read all the details here
Succinct and World Foundation successfully ran a week-long experiment proving every transaction on World Chain’s mainnet using OP Succinct. This marked a major milestone in bringing validity proofs to one of the largest OP Stack rollups. With over 8 MGas/s in June and 5 million monthly active users, World Chain is scaling fast, especially in emerging markets. The experiment demonstrated fast finality, stronger decentralization, and low-cost zk proofs powered by the Succinct Prover Network.
By deploying a parallel bridge with SP1 and Kona, Succinct delivered uninterrupted proofs for 7 days using over 800 GPUs. This effort slashed costs to $0.0102 per transaction and helped stress test open-source infra like Optimism’s Kona, contributing upstream fixes. The collaboration proves that ZK is now production-ready for high-throughput rollups. Read more here.
Vertex Protocol is officially joining the Ink Foundation to build a new generation of DeFi primitives on Ink Layer 2. As part of the move, Vertex will sunset its current deployments and launch a new DEX exclusively on Ink. The VRTX token will be retired, with 1% of the upcoming INK supply allocated to VRTX holders via airdrop. A snapshot was taken on July 8, excluding treasury and non-vested tokens.
The new platform will integrate Vertex’s trading engine, perpetuals, and money markets into Ink’s ecosystem. The deal was facilitated by Acquire.Fi, with legal counsel from Carey Olsen and Willkie Farr. Read more here.
Base is hosting A New Day One on July 16—a live event and livestream where Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, Base creator Jesse Pollak, and builders reveal what’s next for the Layer 2. This marks a fresh milestone in Base’s growth, showcasing new tools for creators, updates to the global economy onchain, and plans for an entirely new social layer. Expect announcements about Base Voices, creator programs, and more as they unveil this next chapter of onchain innovation. If you’re a developer, creator, or just curious about what’s ahead, you’ll want to tune in. Register here to attend or catch the live stream.
World is teaming up with Story, the IP blockchain built for creators, to tackle one of the biggest challenges of the AI era: proving real human authorship. With World ID, creators on Story will soon be able to verify their identity anonymously and link their authorship to their wallets, enabling them to protect, license, and monetize their original work on their own terms. This adds a critical human-authored signal to a landscape overwhelmed by synthetic content, giving real artists a way to stay visible and in control.
The integration goes beyond verification. It’s a signal of what’s possible when blockchain meets creative rights: a system where creators can set usage rules, register IP seamlessly, and get paid directly. As the internet evolves, partnerships like this are laying the groundwork for a future where being human is still a feature, not a bug. Read more here
The draft Season 8 budget proposes allocating 9.18 million OP across two missions—Grants Council and Developer Advisory Board—a 13 percent reduction from the previous seasonal average. The Budget Board aims to extend the Governance Fund’s runway while aligning spend with a high-priority milestone: launching Superchain interoperability. Grants Council would receive 7.98M OP, while the Developer Advisory Board is set to get 1.2M OP, reflecting both strategic urgency and increased cost expectations tied to interop and audit demands.
The methodology starts from a 10-year fund runway and uses past benchmarks and weighted scoring to scale mission budgets based on importance, ROI confidence, and funding intensity. Despite the overall decrease, both missions are recommended for above-baseline allocations, given their potential to accelerate interoperable TVL and improve developer infrastructure. Comments are open through the weekend, with a final proposal expected July 14. Read the full draft here
The Superchain has grown to 33 different OP Chains, each with its flourishing Ecosystem. These are some extra stories to make your Sunday that much more Super.
