Read more about Ham 📰 Governance News & discussionsWe’re in the Reflection Period: Candidate WeekProtocol Upgrade #9: Fjord Network UpgradeFollowing Ecotone Network Upgrade, this upgrade proposal for OP Mainnet includes:Implementation of Rollup Improvement Proposal 7212 (RIP-7212) which includes a new precompile for an elliptic Curve (secp256r1), widely used in devices such as Apple’s Secure Enclave or Webauthn. The introduction of this precompiled contract enables features in account abstraction which allows more efficient and flexible management of accounts by transaction signs in mobile devices. Read more about RIP-7212.Introduces Brotli, a new compression algorithm, which would bring a 5-15% reduction in L1 data availability cost, resulting in cheaper transactions.Introduces FastLZ, a compression algorithm. This implementation improves the estimation of the compressibility of each transaction, leading to more accurate pricing.Parameter changes: Increasing the time in “Max sequencer drift”, allowing for chain operators to have more time to respond to L1 node outage issues before the L2 chain stalls (30 minutes instead of 10 minutes).Increasing the limit to 100mb of the channel, preventing the chance of a L2 block exceeding the current 10mb channel size and failing to post on L1 to progress the chain.The proposal has received the required approvals and will move to a Token House vote on Special Voting Cycle #23b, from June 13th - June 20th.

Eligibility will be reassessed at the start of each season. OP Chains can qualify for:250k OP delegation by generating over 1 ETH in sequencer revenue for at least two consecutive months and being listed in the Superchain Registry. Additional 1M OP delegation if they achieve a transaction volume of at least 1M per month for two consecutive months. Chains operating on the Standard Configuration can receive 500k OP, meaning a combined total of 1.5M delegation for these chains.Chains must opt-in and commit to specific governance responsibilities to be added to the program. Read the full Amendment. Anticapture Commission Amendment ProposalThe ACC aims to prevent the capture of the Token House by any single stakeholder group. Based on member feedback, amendments to the Commission Charter have been proposed to refine its goals. These include alerting the Citizens’ House to power imbalances, voting on proposals subject to veto. Membership criteria has also been updated, requiring high impact delegates with significant voting participation, and excluding Council Leads. Amendment proposals will be voted on during Special Voting Cycle #23b (June 13th - June 20th). Read the Amendment🗳️Voting RemindersNo active proposals at the moment.
