We are excited to announce that we just launched a new Opportunities Feed, making it easier than ever to discover ways to earn rewards across the Superchain. Think of this as your go-to place to explore yield opportunities, like the newly introduced SuperStacks.

This new feed is designed to strengthen the Superchain ecosystem, promote collaboration, and accelerate decentralized innovation. By making it easier to discover active programs and community-driven rewards, we’re helping drive adoption and participation in an open, permissionless digital future.

Optimism has launched the new SuperStacks campaign, an exciting pilot running until June 30, 2025, designed to reward users with XP for providing liquidity in DeFi pools across multiple interconnected OP Chains. This experimental initiative encourages participation on OP Mainnet, Ink, Unichain, Soneium, Base, and World Chain. Participants earn XP by depositing assets like USDT0 into pools hosted on popular protocols, including Velodrome and Uniswap, turning everyday liquidity provision into a rewarding, crosschain experience.
XP earned from SuperStacks showcases your engagement and contribution within the Optimism ecosystem, though these points aren't redeemable as tokens, they offer a clear measure of your participation and may unlock further opportunities in the future. This pilot marks Optimism’s first step toward a fully interconnected Superchain economy, emphasizing crosschain collaboration, transparency, and sustained growth. Ready to dive in?

Lisk is teaming up with The Binary Holdings (TBH) to bring Web3 to over 169 million mobile users in Indonesia and the Philippines. This partnership integrates Lisk's decentralized applications (dApps) directly into telecom apps via TBH's OneWave platform, eliminating the need for separate downloads or complex onboarding. Users can access blockchain features seamlessly within their existing mobile services, earning BNRY tokens redeemable for everyday telecom services like data and airtime.
This collaboration is a significant step in making blockchain technology more accessible and practical for everyday use. By embedding dApps into familiar mobile environments, Lisk and TBH are simplifying the user experience and encouraging broader adoption of Web3 technologies. This approach not only benefits users but also provides developers with a vast, engaged audience in Southeast Asia's rapidly growing digital markets. Read the full partnership details here.
Optimism's Governance Update #10 marks the midpoint of Season 7, highlighting progress toward key decentralization milestones across technical, economic, and social layers. Technically, all Phase A milestones are complete, with focus shifting to Phase B, including the implementation of multiple proof systems. Economically, grant programs now feature measurable ROI, supported by automated processes and initiatives such as the Futarchy experiment, aimed at scalable decision-making. The onboarding of initial Superchain partners further expands ecosystem collaboration.
On the social side, Optimism continues enhancing governance through frameworks like the Votable Supply Framework, refining citizenship criteria for 2025, and improving veto mechanisms to prevent gridlock. Season 8 plans include deeper decentralization, transferring council operating budgets to the DAO and experimenting with non-elected methods to select governance bodies like the Milestones and Metrics Council. These steps collectively reinforce Optimism’s commitment to building a truly decentralized and community-driven governance structure. Read the full update here.
