OP Enterprise is the result of listening to the market and adapting to customer needs. We are technical leaders focused on outcomes and data has been a huge factor in that. If you want to build with us, get in touch.

[Optimist Prime @jinglejamOP]

LISTEN UP EVERYBODY! Today we're launching OP Enterprise.

We all know that crypto is at the cusp of major mainstream adoption. Nearly every major enterprise has a crypto strategy.

We're the only team that has successfully launched chains for multiple companies. We've packaged up all of our learnings into a product offering that will onboard the next wave of enterprises.

OP Enterprise is production-grade blockchain infrastructure for companies that want to build businesses, not become blockchain experts.

Here's what we keep hearing from enterprises:
They're building on infrastructure where the incentives don't align with their own. They're competing for mindshare, fighting to keep users, working against platform economics that extract value from everything they build.

Most blockchain platforms don't care if you're successful. Their focus is on their own TVL and metrics - not yours. You launch your stablecoin into an environment that competes with everyone else's stablecoin and hemorrhage capital to onboard your users onto a blockchain you have zero control over.

And even if you decide to own your chain, you hit the real bottleneck—onboarding the ecosystem partners you need to go live. Stablecoins, oracles, bridges, wallets, indexers. Each negotiation takes months. Costs hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. Vendors pick off blockchain teams one by one.

We've seen this movie before. Many times.

𝗢𝗣 𝗘𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝘅𝗲𝘀 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗵
𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹 — When you own your chain, your infrastructure becomes a revenue-generating asset. Not a cost center. DeFi protocols deploy on your rails. The economic activity you enable accrues to you.
This isn't about saving on fees. It's about owning the infrastructure layer where financial value is created.
𝗩𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲 — We've onboarded tier-one partners across 50+ production chains. They're already integrated, contracted, ready to deploy. We negotiate standard terms, manage costs down, and fast-track partnerships that would otherwise delay your launch by 6-12 months.
We've done this work already. You don't have to.

The window for enterprise blockchain has shifted from "if" to "how fast."
MiCA is live in Europe. US policy is stabilizing. The enterprises that spent 2023-2024 in exploratory mode are now greenlighting production builds.
Enterprise deals are now a competitive space. When we talk to enterprises, we see everyone trying to help them come onchain.
But the OP Stack is the only stack that has successfully brought and scaled multiple enterprises onchain. We've seen what works and what doesn't. We've earned this knowledge by building alongside the fastest-growing enterprises in web3. We've encountered every failure mode because we've been doing this longer than anyone else.
At the end of the day, enterprises want to control their own economics. They don't want to rent infrastructure from platforms that compete with them.
The OP Stack vision will win. Shared standards balanced with chain autonomy.

Different use cases. Same infrastructure. Same commitment to their success
We are here today because partners like these rolled up their sleeves and built together with us.

OP Enterprise is a major focus for us in 2026.
We have active engagements across fintech, exchanges, payments, and financial services. The direction is clear: the OP Stack is becoming the standard for the next generation of financial systems.

This is the first of many announcements to come.
If you're serious about building onchain, we should talk.

@jinglejamOP The landscape is changing and we are evolving with it real time. Proud to be apart of this team

[Optimist Prime @jinglejamOP]

Our 2026 Roadmap

Last year, we made transactions 10x faster and 10x cheaper. But that’s not enough. This year, we also want to make the OP Stack hands down the best toolset for scaling to your first million dollars in onchain revenue.

To us, scaling means identifying and removing bottlenecks. And the bottleneck isn’t always throughput. Sometimes, the bottleneck is liquidity. Sometimes it’s security, UX or integrations.

We build tools to solve every flavor of bottleneck. That’s why OP Stack chains earn up to 3x more in profit (2x more revenue) per dollar onchain than the most successful chains on other L2 stacks. That’s why we process 14% of all transactions in crypto. And we do this all while maintaining the lowest fees.

Our goal is to build infrastructure that enables companies to expand their product lines faster, and build superior user experiences. So in 2026, a majority of our product development will be focused on the following three pillars:

Performance
The most at-scale chains use the OP Stack. @base is the fastest and highest throughput L2 on the market - they will continue to push the limits of scaling in 2026, and the rest of the Superchain will benefit too. We’ll be allowing more compute supply for lower infrastructure costs while simultaneously handling more compute demand with the same supply through features like BALs to scale node operation, lightweight derivation, and fee market modularization. op-reth will also be available to any chain that wants it.

Customizability
The OP Stack is widely regarded as the most modular and customizable chain stack on the market. Notable examples include: @world_chain_'s Proof of Humanity, @Celo's native fee abstraction, and @unichain's provable blockbuilding. In 2026, we’ll add more customization levers like multiple gas tokens, priority lanes, and dynamic opcode repricing for improved execution. And alas - ZK.

Revenue
Your money already works harder for you on the OP Stack. We want to push that even further with native token actions such as buy & burn for any chain, MEV auctions (in partnership with Flashbots), sequencer revenue modules that enable different transaction ordering schemes, and features that enable more liquidity to move securely and quickly between chains to help reduce LTV ratios in defi apps on the Superchain.

We're excited to see our partners succeed in 2026, and to deliver the roadmap that enables that. If you'd like to talk to us, come find us at our Scaling Summit in ETH Denver:

Making moves.

[Optimist Prime @jinglejamOP]

Happy new year everyone! In November last year, I wrote about the changes we were making to refocus the team on what comes next for crypto.

Today, the @Optimism Foundation is proposing a token buyback. The goal is to unify the broader ecosystem outside of just our internal teams to prepare for the next wave of adoption.

Here’s where we are today: The Superchain is globally adopted infrastructure. It processes 13% of all blockchain transactions, with 61.4% of L2 fee market share.

Foundation and Labs are not solely responsible for this success. Legends like @base, @unichain, @inkonchain, @worldcoin, @Celo, @build_on_bob, @zora, @modenetwork and @Soneium chose the OP Stack and their growth demanded that we scale the infrastructure to support them. We are here today because our partners and integrators rolled up their sleeves and built together with us.

The OP token has historically had no tie to the performance of the Superchain, and we’d like to change that. OP should be an incentive alignment mechanism to unify all of us who are working towards the shared goal of innovating on the OP Stack and accelerating Superchain growth.

Every OP Chain contributes sequencer revenue to Optimism. In the past twelve months, Optimism has collected 5,868 ETH. This proposal directs 50% of incoming revenue to buy OP tokens monthly for the next year. OP tokens bought through this program flow back into the token treasury ecosystem. Governance retains oversight over buyback parameters and treasury management. The remaining ETH will be actively managed by the Foundation to fund operations, and grow the Superchain.

If approved, this proposal will transition OP from a pure governance token to a token tightly aligned with network growth. When an enterprise builds a new chain, the utility of the token increases and OP benefits. When builders choose the Superchain, the flywheel accelerates. Every transaction expands the base from which buybacks operate.

The governance proposal moves to vote on January 22. If approved, buybacks begin in February. We will be hosting a Twitter space with myself, @karl_dot_tech & @ben_chain on Jan 12th, 12pm EST for all your questions.

This program starts small and scales as we scale, and the role of the OP token will continue to evolve. But the direction is clear: the OP Stack is becoming the standard for the next generation of financial systems. This change aligns the OP token with that momentum, ensuring those building the most important financial infrastructure in crypto capture its impact.

This is a new era for OP, and the first of many announcements to come on our plans for 2026. Looking forward to the discussion!

[Ethereum @ethereum]

Today @jpmorgan, the world's largest bank by market cap per @WSJ, announced they're launching their first ever tokenized money market fund—MONY—on Ethereum.

The firm is seeding the fund with $100M of its own capital before opening to outside investors on Tuesday.

[Optimism @Optimism]

Tokenized RWAs are on track to reach trillions by 2030, up from ~$35B today. As treasuries, credit, and equities move onchain, the world’s largest exchanges are turning to Optimism and the OP Stack to power the next era of financial infrastructure.

[Optimism @Optimism]

The Superchain is scaling @ethereum, powering 14.1% of all crypto transactions in November.

Almost 2x growth in just 5 months.

What a privilege to work with a team that you actually want to spend time with. You may see our new site https://t.co/ifr89a5BsB and start to comprehend the benefits of owning your own chain but what you may not see is the laughter, connection, standups it took to get us there.

Crypto is growing up,
@Optimism is growing up. We still have fun, but shipping is more purposeful, targeted, intent on outcomes.
