OP Mainnet is a Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum, developed by the Optimism Foundation and launched in 2019. It utilizes Optimistic Rollups to process transactions off-chain, thereby enhancing scalability and reducing transaction costs while maintaining Ethereum's security.
As a Layer 2 network, OP Mainnet operates atop Ethereum's Layer 1, offering faster and more cost-effective transactions. Its EVM-equivalent architecture ensures compatibility with existing Ethereum applications, allowing developers to deploy their projects with minimal adjustments.
The network is governed by the Optimism Collective, a decentralized community comprising the Token House and the Citizens' House. This structure emphasizes sustainable funding for public goods and community-driven development.
OP Mainnet's native currency is Ether (ETH), which is used for transaction fees and staking within the network.
