View ChartOptimism (OP) is a layer-two blockchain built on top of the Ethereum blockchain. It benefits from the security of the Ethereum mainnet and helps to scale the Ethereum ecosystem by using optimistic rollups. This means that transactions are recorded trustlessly on Optimism, but are ultimately secured on Ethereum.
With over $500 million in TVL, Optimism is one of the biggest scaling solutions for Ethereum. It is home to 97 protocols, the largest of which are Synthetix (SNX), a derivatives exchange; Uniswap (UNI), a decentralised exchange (DEX); and Velodrome (VELO), an automated market maker (AMM). Users can start using Optimism by adding the chain to their MetaMask wallet and bridging tokens such as ETH to the L2.
For their operations, optimism-based networks employ what are known as “optimistic rollups.” To alleviate network congestion and drastically lower transaction fees, this system executes transactions off-chain in groups.
To more fairly distribute the transaction cost among all users involved, Optimism’s rollup technology consolidates numerous transactions from Ethereum’s Layer 1 into a single transaction. The OP Mainnet, Optimism’s Layer 2 network, processes the rollup, while Ethereum’s Layer 1 handles the processing of the transaction data.
The “optimistic” part of this method is that it skips computations and starts by assuming that all transactions on Layer 2 of Optimism are genuine. The system will execute fraud-proofing to confirm a transaction if it suspects it may be fraudulent.
In contrast to zero-knowledge rollups, which verify the validity of all transactions before pushing them onto the main Ethereum blockchain, optimistic rollups do not assume anything. Pessimistic rollups is another name for these. Optimistic rollups usually offer less expensive transactions because such proofs are costly.
Optimism isn’t just about blockchain technology; it’s about a community of businesses, organizations, and individuals collaborating to create a bright future for Ethereum by rewarding public benefits. The code for Optimism is open-sourced and licensed under the MIT umbrella, unlike some other rollups. The specification is built with Ethereum in mind from the beginning, so everything is compatible and functions as expected on Ethereum. This means that developers can jump right into inventing on Optimism without having to learn new languages or rewrite code. A group of developers, builders, and crypto aficionados who share similar beliefs can be found on Optimism, the most forked rollup.
