This is the second edition of Stacked with Optimism where we keep you up to date on all things happening in the world of OP.
This week, I'm stepping in for the team. It's SuperSeb* here, your community contributor, bringing you this edition.
Let’s dive in.
The most important news of this month of them all… SUPERSEED TESTNET IS LIVE 🥳🥳
The team has been working hard, and it’s finally live. Boy, have we been waiting! If you want to know more about the different phases and how you can participate even without ETH on mainnet, check out my tweet on the subject.
Developments In OP 🔴
Permissionless Fault Proofs have arrived on the OP Stack, bringing it to a very crucial Stage 1 of decentralization. This key moment on OP's path to decentralization allows users to withdraw without relying on the sequencer or any other centralized infrastructure. Here’s a great explanation by breadguy.
Alt-DA Mode is now available in beta, allowing any DA layer to integrate into the OP Stack. Celestia, Eigen, and Avail have already launched.
You thought Optimism was all about being optimistic? Well, it turns out it likes some ZK proofs: Risc Zero is coming to Optimism, and with it, verifiable offchain execution for OP. Very excited about this one!
Alchemy launched their Rollup as a Service to facilitate deployment of new projects, joining the network of RaaS partners of OP!
Dan Robinson, researcher at paradigm, posted a thread about a new mechanism called MEV taxes, a mechanism that allows DApps to capture their MEV. Now, what I like about this is the name of the article “Priority is all you need”. This is a direct reference to “Attention is all you need”, the groundbreaking machine learning paper that allowed technologies such as ChatGPT to arise. Yes, you can even learn stuff here.
Silo Labs is launching soon on Optimism. Great news for lenders & borrowers that want to silo their risk
OPLabs launched their beta version of the custom gas token feature: Chain operators will allow you to pay with any token, not just ETH.
The L3 chain Ham Chain is live, build using the OP Stack and Celestia’s DA on top of Base.
Superchain Updates 🦸
Quite a lot of new arrivals since last time. Congratulations to builders!
Kroma, a game-centric L2, joined the Superchain.
Allo brings Real World Assets to the Superchain.
XTerio joins to Superchain to scale Web3 Gaming.
Mint, a NFT centered chain, launches on the Superchain this summer.
Camp, a L2 that allows you to own and monetize your data, joins the Superchain.
Subdomains have arrived to the Superchain: welcome Superchain Identity, powered by 3DNS.
Caldera’s Rollup as a Service platforms now supports Optimism Superchain.
Adoption is growing on the Superchain, with more than 4m daily transactions throughout April and May!
Superchain Eco unveiled Superchain Space, a collaboration hub for the Superchain around EthCC in Brussel. The date is 8-9th July!
Retro Funding 💃
10M OP (yes, 10 f***ing million OPs) are going to devs in the Retro Funding 4 program launched by Optimism. A nice way to develop the Superchain ecosystem. Applications are now closed, and voting will take place from June 23rd to July 8th.
About the rewards, they’ve been fueled by sequencer revenues and contributions from Superchain members. That’s the strength of this model. See more here.
Onchain Summer is back 🥵 and it’s for everyone!
It was announced in early May, Base and Optimism teamed up to reward builders for a total prize of 600 ETH and 600k OP (more than 3.5M$)! But now, it’s open to everyone to participate: until August 30, you can participate in the event through minting, gaming, and more! You can start by minting the first Onchain summer NFT here. First round is already closed, with 100+ applications.
Quote of the Week 💭
This one is from jinglejamOP on Optimism Collective’s path towards decentralization: “You just deploy something, anything, and then be unafraid to delete the whole thing”. Let’s remember folks, nothing is perfect at first. Failure builds success!
That’s it for this edition!
