Optimism

Agentic commerce only becomes reality when the infrastructure exists to support it. At the Agentic Summit, @EliHaims shared how the OP Stack gives builders the speed, scale, and flexibility to bring these systems into production.

State of the OP Stack Q1 2026 is live Key Update: @Optimism shifted toward institutional adoption with the launch of OP Enterprise, a managed infrastructure product for institutions to run dedicated chains without in-house ops. @EtherFi migrated its Cash product to OP Mainnet with zero downtime, adding $220M in TVL, and Sunnyside Labs launched Privacy Boost, the first privacy infrastructure built natively for the OP Stack.

The future of onchain gaming is looking Optimistic.

@Ronin_Network Let's go! Welcome to the OP Stack.

Ronin. Is. Home. Migration to Ethereum complete ⚔ Five years ago, Ronin was a new Ethereum sidechain with a single game aboard: Axie Infinity. Over the years, Ronin emerged as THE gaming chain, onboarding millions of players through more games like Pixels, Cambria, Angry Dynomites, and many others. Today, we plugged our engine into the mothership: Ethereum. Here’s what that means 🧵👇

@Jihoz_Axie Big day and just the beginning. Congrats to the team!

Today's a day we've been building towards for years. @Ronin_Network is officially an Ethereum Layer 2. @VitalikButerin recently said that the era of generalized L2s is over. We agree. Ronin was built for a very specific use-case. To scale Axie beyond crypto, to everyday people. Over the years, it's become more than just the chain for Axie. A crew formed. An alliance of games and apps looking to make crypto fun, accessible, and educational. Today we've plugged Ronin back into Ethereum to become the most interesting, entertaining, and welcoming way for regular people to step into crypto. We are Ethereum's gamification engine. This is a full circle moment, and wouldn't be possible without the tireless, often thankless efforts of the @ethereum developer community, who've made it much much more sensible to run an L2 compared to an L1 or side chain. When we created Ronin, L2s were just an idea. Today, blob fees are affordable. The tech and security is battle tested. The benefits: > By using Ethereum for security we no longer have to pay for our own security costs via inflation while inheriting the security of the largest smart contract platform ever created > Much easier to tap into liquidity and shared network effects from Ethereum > Reduced inflation and improved $RON tokenomics due to the costs we save on incentivizing network security > Ronin is now 50% faster Today we're also rolling out upgrades that make Ronin even more unique: > The proof of distribution system is now live and operational, programmatically dispersing rewards to builders based on metrics that have been most correlated with $RON momentum in the past: pod.roninchain.com > The Ronin treasury has been bolstered with new streams of value: 1.25% of all NFT volume on Ronin, all sequencer fees, and 90 M RON that was previously set aside for staking rewards > We've rolled out a new landing page for welcoming participants to the ecosystem: roninchain.com It's been a long journey. From the early days in the CryptoKitty community. From 30 users to millions. From Axie to an entire roster of games. And somehow, it's clear to me: this is just one more step on a path that stretches many years ahead of us. We choose to move forward, not because it's easy, but because it's hard and if it works, we have a chance to make history. Again.

@Jihoz_Axie 🔜

#55577490 See you in about 10 hours. Ronin is going into hibernation now. See you on the other side 🫡

@LittleGuysWorld The best part? Hard to say, but this is a great example of a use-case specific L2.

@Optimism Best part? We are saying bye to inflation ❤️🧸

@Jokerbernrin It's a big day for @Ronin_Network

@Optimism Feels like the build up is real

@heykumaonx DAUs before and after migration would be interesting to track.

@Optimism What’s the one metric that’ll tell you this was a win?
