According to the project, the upgrade is a paradigm shift that will enable the next economic boom and position Chainlink at its epicenter.

Over 50 networks, including prominent ones like Base, Kraken, and Uniswap, have embraced Optimism’s technology, drawn by its simplicity and seamless interoperability.

Enterprise blockchain company R3 is exploring strategic options, including a potential sale, highlighting a broader shift in the financial sector's embrace of public over private blockchain networks.

As trading volumes slow, Kraken seeks to attract users and developers while diversifying revenue streams. Ink network built on the Optimism OP Stack is set to bring DeFi closer to the average user. The network is part of the Optimism Superchain, designed for enhanced cross-chain connectivity.

The chain has generated significant excitement within the Yuga Labs community. In just a few days, it has attracted over 100,000 users, while the value of the $APE token has nearly doubled.

Large-scale adoption of Ethereum by Layer 2 chains led to a quick fill-up of blob space. Vitalik Buterin urged to allow for more cheap space for L2 usage in the closest upgrade.

Buterin ponders the necessary infrastructural changes that should be implemented in Ethereum to enhance its decentralization and reduce its time to finality.

Uniswap launches "Unichain" - a Layer 2 blockchain with promises of lower costs and faster trades. But where is the line that divides decentralized networks from proprietary servers?
