Ethereum scaling is becoming more than a race to offer cheaper transactions. optimism:native is the governance token associated with Optimism, an Ethereum Layer 2 ecosystem built around optimistic rollup technology. The ecosystem also contributes to the OP Stack, a framework for building compatible blockchain networks. Key ideas: → Ethereum-oriented scaling → Lower-cost transaction execution → Open blockchain development tools → Shared infrastructure across networks → Governance through the Optimism ecosystem Multiple chains using similar technology still need to solve liquidity fragmentation and user experience. Scaling technology is only one part of the puzzle. Connecting applications and users is another.
