Optimism has emerged as a leader in this innovation, initially with the OP Stack, a suite of software designed to support the Optimism ecosystem and its mainnet, ensuring interoperability between existing chains and facilitating the creation of new ones through an open-source system. It is estimated that over the past two years, OP Mainnet has saved users $2.69 billion in fees, 15.8 years of waiting for transaction confirmations, and currently secures $2.8 billion in onchain value.

Superscan, created by Routescan, represents an advanced solution as a block explorer dedicated to the Superchain ecosystem, ensuring transparency and ease of use in a complex and ever-evolving environment.

Introduction to Superchain and OP Stack

The Superchain is a blockchain architecture developed by Optimism Collective. Based on the OP Stack, the Superchain enables interoperability between different Layer 2 (L2) blockchains, creating a secure and scalable multichain ecosystem. The OP Stack is a set of open-source software tools designed to support the Optimism ecosystem, facilitating the development and management of L2 blockchains and the Optimism ecosystem. The OP Stack is the standardized, shared, and MIT-licensed open-source development stack that powers the Optimism ecosystem and the Superchain. This combination of technologies allows chains to communicate and collaborate efficiently, addressing many of the scalability and interoperability issues currently plaguing the blockchain sector.

Optimism has set new standards in the scalability competition, becoming the most forked L2 solution.

Advantages of The Superchain

  • Interconnected Efficiency: Facilitates seamless transactions across multiple OP Chains, multiplying the ecosystem's processing capacity.
  • Consistent Security: Interconnected L2 networks adhere to a consistent security protocol, maintaining trust and security uniformly across the Superchain.
  • Dynamic Scalability: Easily expandable as more chains can be added permissionlessly without pausing or disrupting existing networks.
