The Optimism Foundation aims to expand the blockchain ecosystem to create a decentralized web, shifting away from centralized entities towards permissionless protocols. Optimism's superchain is highly scalable, horizontal, and involves multiple blockchains. Synchronizing a blockchain linearly increases hardware requirements with the level of computation, thus requiring parallel operation for horizontal scaling. However, traditional designs face limitations as each chain necessitates a new security model, thus heightening systemic risk with introducing new chains. Developing new chains proves costly as it involves constructing validator sets or producers from scratch. By integrating Layer 2 to establish a multi-chain ecosystem, resources can be freely exchanged between chains as commodities. This enables developers to create cross-chain applications without concerns regarding system risks.

The Optimism Foundation aims to expand the blockchain ecosystem towards a decentralized web - a new internet that replaces centralized entities with permissionless protocols. Their superchain is highly scalable and horizontal, requiring the collaboration of multiple blockchains. Traditional designs face limitations as each chain introduces a new security model, increasing systemic risk. Developing new chains is expensive and time-consuming as it involves building new validator sets. By creating a multi-chain ecosystem through Layer 2 technology, developers can freely build cross-chain applications without concerns about system risks.

The Optimism Foundation aims to expand the blockchain ecosystem into a decentralized web, replacing centralized entities with permissionless protocols. Their superchain is scalable, horizontal, and requires multiple blockchains to participate. Traditional designs have limitations as each chain introduces new security risks and requires expensive validator sets. By creating a multi-chain ecosystem with Layer 2, developers can freely build cross-chain applications without system risks, exchanging resources as commodities.
English
Superchain by Optimism is a horizontally scalable system that involves multiple blockchains working together. Scaling horizontally means running blockchains in parallel to increase computing power. However, traditional designs have limitations as each chain requires a new security model, increasing systemic risk. Superchain overcomes this by combining Layer 2 chains to create a multi-chain ecosystem where resources can be freely exchanged. This decentralized platform operates on a unified technology stack, similar to competitors such as Cosmos, Avalanche, and Polkadot. Superchain's network of L2 chains (OP Chains) allows for standardized resource exchange, enabling developers to build cross-chain applications easily. Apps developed on Superchain can be utilized throughout the entire ecosystem.
English

Superchain was established with the goal of integrating the Optimism Mainnet with OP Chains to form a cohesive ecosystem focused on achieving internet-level scalability. All Superchain projects will be operating on OP Stack, a framework designed to streamline the deployment process, enhance communication abilities, ensure security, manage governance, and implement network upgrades. The vision of the Optimism Foundation is to expand the blockchain ecosystem into a decentralized web by replacing centralized entities with a permissionless protocol. The Superchain by Optimism is designed to be horizontally scalable, requiring collaboration among multiple blockchains. In order to achieve horizontal scalability, blockchains need to operate in parallel to synchronize with the increasing computational demands, although traditional designs have their limitations due to new security models for each chain leading to elevated systemic risks with the introduction of new chains.
English

The Superchain concept revolutionizes scalability on the Optimism network and blockchains within the OP Chain ecosystem. It is akin to the Cosmos ecosystem and Avalanche's subnet. The goal of Superchain is to unify the Optimism Mainnet network with OP Chains, leveraging OP Stack for streamlined deployment of projects onto Layer 2 blockchains. This merger aims for internet-level scalability by sharing resources such as communication capabilities, bridges, security structures, governance, and network upgrades. The Optimism Foundation envisions expanding the blockchain ecosystem towards a decentralized web, displacing centralized entities with permissionless protocols.

Blob is crafted to offer temporary storage for Ethereum applications, particularly Rollup. Initially, Ethereum focused on execution sharding but later shifted to data sharding due to limitations. Data blobs are processed by consensus nodes independently from execution nodes, benefiting Rollups the most. EVM does not store data in blobs, enhancing the scalability of Ethereum through this upgrade.
English

Blob is a specialized storage solution created to cater to the data storage needs of Ethereum applications, with a specific focus on Rollup technology. In the past, Ethereum had a roadmap centered around execution sharding, where different programs could be executed in separate shards. However, due to various challenges and risks, the developers decided to shift their focus towards data sharding. This shift aims to address the scalability issues of Rollups by utilizing "blobs".
Data blobs have a unique quality in that they are managed, stored, and validated by consensus nodes at the consensus layer, rather than by execution nodes at the execution layer. This means that the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) does not have access to or store data in blobs. Rollup technology stands to gain the most from this upgrade, as it allows for more efficient and secure data storage and processing.
English
Ethereum originally planned to implement execution sharding, allowing for different programs to run on separate shards. However, due to limitations and risks, developers shifted to data sharding to address expansion issues for Rollups. Data blobs are processed, stored, and verified by consensus nodes independently of execution nodes. The EVM cannot access or store data in blobs, benefiting Rollups the most. Storage space is sold in blob units equivalent to 128 kB. Prices will be determined by market supply and demand.

English

Following the successful deployment of the upgraded version of Dencun, Layer 2 wasted no time in rolling out the update. Prominent projects such as zkSync, Starknet, Arbitrum, Base, and Optimism have all released updated versions. These updates resulted in a significant decrease in transaction fees for sending ETH, as data storage costs saw a sharp decline. Each execution shard has the capability to support various programs. Nevertheless, considering the limitations and risks involved, Ethereum developers opted to pursue data sharding to address scalability challenges in Rollups through the use of "blobs". Data blobs are uniquely processed, stored, and verified by consensus nodes on the consensus layer, separate from the execution nodes on the execution layer. This setup means that the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) cannot access or store data within blobs, resulting in Rollups being the primary beneficiaries of this upgrade. Data storage space is now traded in integer units of blobs, while regular transaction fees remain unchanged—calldata is charged at 16 gas for non-zero bytes and 4 gas for zero bytes. Only blob transactions utilize both gas fee markets.

@billynewton718 optimize scalability and performance, allowing for increased processing power without sacrificing decentralization or security.
English

Each execution shard has the capability to support different programs, but Ethereum developers chose to focus on data sharding to address the limitations of expanding Rollups. This involved the introduction of "blobs", which are data units processed, stored, and verified by consensus nodes independently from execution nodes. As a result, EVM cannot access or store data in blobs, benefitting Rollups the most. Blobs are sold in integer units, each equal to 128 kB, with a standard 3 blobs per block at 384 kB. The price for blob resources fluctuates based on market demand, increasing by 12.5% for each additional blob used beyond 3, and decreasing by the same percentage if fewer than 3 blobs are utilized.

@billynewton718 Execution shards can be customized to run diverse programs, offering flexibility and scalability. However, proper security measures should be implemented to mitigate potential risks.

Each execution shard can be customized to run different programs within its environment. In order to address limitations and risks, Ethereum developers have opted to implement data sharding to enhance Rollups by utilizing "blobs". Data blobs are unique in the sense that they are managed, stored, and validated by consensus nodes at the consensus layer, separate from the execution nodes on the execution layer. This ensures that EVM cannot access or store data within blobs, benefiting Rollups the most from this enhancement. Data storage is measured in integer units of blobs, with each blob equivalent to 128 kB of space. The cost of utilizing blob resources will be determined based on market supply and demand. A standard block includes 3 blobs, totaling 384 kB. As the number of blobs used exceeds 3, the price for each additional blob will rise by 12.5%. Conversely, if the number of blobs utilized is 3 or less, the price per blob will decrease by 12.5%.

Following the successful deployment of the upgraded version of Dencun, Layer 2 swiftly implemented the update. Projects such as zkSync, Starknet, Arbitrum, Base, and Optimism have all released their updated versions. Many of these projects have experienced a noticeable reduction in transaction fees (particularly when sending ETH) as a result of a significant drop in data storage costs. Each execution shard has the capability to be designed in a way that allows for the execution of various programs. However, facing certain limitations and risks, Ethereum developers have opted to pursue data sharding to address the issue of expanding Rollups through the utilization of "blobs". Data blobs possess a unique feature in that they are processed, stored, and verified by consensus nodes on the consensus layer, separate from the execution nodes on the execution layer. This implies that the EVM is unable to access or store data in blobs, with the Rollup being the primary beneficiary of this upgrade. Data storage space is made available in integer units of blobs, while regular transaction fees remain unchanged, with calldata incurring a charge of 16 gas for non-zero bytes and 4 gas for zero bytes. It is only the blob transactions that utilize both gas fee markets.
