Optimism (OP) History and Overview

Optimism (OP) History and Overview

Optimism is a layer-two blockchain that operates on top of Ethereum. It leverages the security of the Ethereum mainnet and helps scale the Ethereum ecosystem through the use of optimistic rollups. This means that transactions are recorded trustlessly on Optimism, but ultimately secured on Ethereum. With over $500 million in total value locked, Optimism is one of the leading scaling solutions for Ethereum, hosting 97 protocols, including Synthetix (SNX), Uniswap (UNI) and Velodrome (VELO). Users can access Optimism by adding the chain to their Metamask wallet and bridging tokens like ETH to layer-two.

Optimism is built around four core principles: simplicity, pragmatism, sustainability and optimism. It aims to minimize the number of components while providing a layer-two solution for Ethereum. This approach involves using existing Ethereum code and infrastructure whenever possible and keeping the code as simple as possible.

The ecosystem is driven by the real-world needs and constraints of the team and users, with a focus on building iteratively and gradually implementing features such as EVM equivalence. The design process prioritizes long-term sustainability and avoids shortcuts to scalability. Optimism uses optimistic rollups and takes advantage of the Ethereum consensus mechanism to scale the network. Transactions are executed on layer-two, while batches of transactions are submitted to layer-one. The layer-two does not have a mempool, and transactions are immediately accepted or rejected, providing a smooth user experience while maintaining security.

Transactions are submitted to Ethereum without direct proof of validity and can be challenged for a period of seven days. After that, a transaction is considered final, which is why withdrawals from Optimism to Ethereum take seven days to complete.

Something most might miss is that $OP actually looks really really good on a higher time frame.


We have seen a clean series of higher lows and higher highs pointing to a bright picture for the future.

So what altcoins will I be concentrating on?


As some of you have already noticed I am a big fan of $OP Optimism.

I firmly believe that $ETH is the underdog of this cycle and will perform better than most expect.


Subsequently, scaling solutions will be needed and sought after. $OP has a very good position with the Superchain being a potential killer application/protocol allowing multiple Layer 2s to seamlessly connect and interact with each other scaling the network horizontally.


Apart from that Layer 1 solutions like $SOL, $AVAX, $NEAR, $SUI, etc. also have a lot going for them and will most likely also perform very well.


Then there are the sectors that saw crazy rallies in the past but couldn't live up to the expectations but could see a revival under more lax regulation. These include DeFi (decentralized finance) and RWA (real-world assets) tokenization.

Protocols like $AAVE, $CRV, $MKR, $ONDO, ... come to mind here.

$OP still consolidating with the trend intact. I still believe in Layer 2s and the Superchain could be really amazing for scaling $ETH with a good user experience.

Optimism's $OP token also shows strength against $BTC


With a lot of room to breathe it's my main bet at the moment.

$OP also looks like it may have bottomed and has a lot of room to grow.


There are still many levels to clear though and only above 2$ most of the EMAs act as support and not resistance.
