API Reference

Optimism Core Tech: Optimistic Rollups & EVM Equivalence

Optimism scales Ethereum via Optimistic Rollups, bundling transactions off-chain while inheriting Ethereum's security. Its EVM-equivalent design (Bedrock upgrade) ensures seamless dApp migration. OP tokens govern the network and fund public goods via RetroPGF, while fraud proofs safeguard $6B+ in TVL with minimal trust assumptions.

Optimism Performance: 90% Cheaper Gas & Instant Finality

Optimism reduces Ethereum's gas fees by 90%, processing 2,000+ TPS with sub-second transaction finality. Its modular architecture (OP Stack) powers chains like Base and Worldcoin, scaling horizontally via "Superchain" interoperability. Bedrock cut fees by 47%, with plans to match Arbitrum's 40k TPS through parallelization.

Optimism Ecosystem: DeFi Dominance & Superchain Vision

Home to Uniswap, Synthetix, and Aave, Optimism hosts $3B+ TVL (top 3 Layer2). The OP token incentivizes usage (airdrops to 250k+ users) and governance. Partnerships with Coinbase (Base) and Farcaster highlight its "Superchain" vision—uniting Ethereum-aligned chains with shared security and liquidity.
