Enterprises need control. But that shouldn’t mean closing themselves off from the permissionless ecosystem.
At @rwasummit, VP of Sales Carlos Arena shared why staying connected to the wallets, infrastructure, and innovation happening onchain matters for what you might want to build next.

Institutions want privacy, faster withdrawals, and easier access to liquidity.
Those demands are increasingly shaping how onchain infrastructure gets built.

Moving business funds onchain just got easier.
@altitude is bringing USDC payments to Optimism.
Running your own chain shouldn’t mean running every piece of infrastructure around it.

One stack, endless possibilities.
The OP Stack gives companies the flexibility to configure infrastructure around their product.
Our new integrated @aave market on @Optimism allows your to borrow against the value of their entire portfolio, at around 4%
Use it to spend with your card, send payments, or buy more assets, while your collateral keeps earning

Public or private chains? It depends on the use case.
Enterprises need different levels of openness, privacy, and interoperability depending on what they're building.
Infrastructure that forces everyone into the same model loses.

Another chain choosing the OP Stack.
Welcome, Whitechain.
We’ve been quiet because we were building the upgrade Whitechain deserves!
Whitechain is officially evolving from a standalone PoA L1 into an Ethereum L2 powered by the OP Stack.
The Whitechain Sepolia Testnet is LIVE today. 🧵👇

Crypto cards are turning payments into the front end for a broader financial stack.
As card spend grows, lending and liquidity are moving closer to the point of payment.
@ether_fi’s Aave V4 instance on OP Mainnet is one example of that shift.

Privacy Boost started as the first privacy SDK built for the OP Stack. Now there’s an app for it.
The SDK was built for enterprises. But everyone else kept asking for a way in.
The Privacy Boost App is live.
Just connect your wallet, shield your assets, and send privately, without breaking compliance.

EtherFi Cash outgrew its own lending infrastructure.
So we're deploying a dedicated @aave V4 instance on @Optimism to power our card's credit backend.
$22M in active borrowing today. $500M lending capacity by 2027.
70K cardholders spending against their crypto without selling it.
Now with the infrastructure to scale.

Onchain finance is still well under 1% of global financial assets.
So what happens as more settlement, cross-border payments, and financial products move onchain?
OP Labs CTO @karl_dot_tech joined @therollupco to talk about the role Ethereum L2s and OP Enterprise can play.

OP Mainnet is running 3x the monthly transactions it did in early 2024.
More on what's behind the volume later this week.

About 29% of crypto card spend settles on OP Mainnet, and most of it is @ether_fi Cash. In their words, migrating in April was about "providing the best possible service to our users": $0.00001 median fees, sub-250ms finality, 99.99% uptime.

In early 2024, crypto card spending was concentrated in a single chain: Gnosis, home of Gnosis Pay (the first Visa card connected directly to a self-custodial wallet). As new card programs have launched, the number of card settlement chains has expanded.
As of July, Optimism carries about 29% of crypto card spend volume, Solana about 19%, and Base about 19%, according to Paymentscan. Gnosis has dropped to about 2%.
