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.

I conducted another study using a different method to reduce potential dilution risks and extract information directly from the market.


I took a larger sample of 200 assets based on market size, excluding stablecoins, from CoinMarketCap.


I calculated the ratio of Fully Diluted Market Cap / Market Cap.

Then, I calculated the average of this ratio.


I found that more than 75% of the assets had a ratio lower than the average, which was 1.92.


This means any asset with a Fully Diluted Market Cap to Market Cap ratio higher than 1.92 could be considered as having potential dilution risks.


You should review it better.

There are a lot of outliers

These are the buy and hold returns from April 1 to the present. 


I provide this information to help you see the extent of the decline resulting from the black swan event last night and the night before and compare its impact from the opening of the month. 


You can evaluate this discounts in relation to your investment as this is an appropriate opportunity to buy discounts as in Mid of last March.


It is always better to invest in a passive index with objective rules and no survival bias.


You can review the components that my indexes possess periodically and compare your performance with my indexes that objectively organize the cryptocurrency market according to the method of your investment, or use them to form your own strategies or customize your investment and increase your understanding of developments in the crypto market.


I'm a momentum investor, I buy winners and sell losers here.

The winner remains a winner and the loser remains a loser.


But you can benefit from this information according to your strategy if you are buying dips.

$STX

Are the Stacks L1 or L2 ?


Layer 1 blockchains are sovereign systems, meaning that the system can exist without anything else.

$BTC & $ETH is a sovereign L1 blockchain.


Layer 2 blockchains, can't exist by themselves, they depend on the underlying L1.

Lightning an L2 can’t exist without the $BTC L1 blockchain.

$ARB , $OP an L2 can’t exist without the $ETH L1 blockchain.


L2 is benefiting 100% from the security of the underlying L1, which also means that the L2 is actually contained fully within the programming abilities of the L1.


$STX

Are the Stacks L1 or L2 ?


L1: This is because Stacks has independent miners as well as a separate security budget in addition to the security benefits that it gets from Bitcoin.

Not L1: Stacks is not a sovereign system, as it cannot exist without Bitcoin.


It’s also not an L2 because it brings functionality that cannot be implemented with Bitcoin script, specifically fully expressive smart contracts.


From my personal point of view, I think that STX is considered something different and there is no specific classification for it in my classification system except that it can be expressed as a mixture between layer1 and layer2!


Why?


It is difficult to consider it as layer 1 and it is difficult to consider it as layer 2.


So I like to see it like a mix.

They are all tech companies often with utility tokens backed by fried air. I do not consider myself an investment manager, so cannot help you with the categorisation. Tho you can categorise them as you want as long as your ontology is ground based.

@HopefulFutures I agree with you somewhat, though anyway, can you suggest how STX would be classified from our perspective as investment managers?


Usually we look at things from the perspective of the sector, then the Industry group, then the industry and sub-industry.


I have already posted this on several posts


https://www.iconomi.com/asset/DMINDEX?postId=d792d6b1-cf8b-4e49-ac6e-0cbb65284fe1


https://www.iconomi.com/asset/DMINDEX?postId=e07da214-de69-46df-bf61-8462f10f2bd6


https://www.iconomi.com/asset/DMINDEX?postId=4ce84409-a9ab-4e72-b0f2-952ec43888bd


Some examples to clarify the classification system further for you:


ARB, OP

Sector: Blockchain infrastructure.

Industry Group: Blockchain utilities.

Industry: Network scaling  “Layer 2 scaling solution ”.

Sub-Industry: Optimistic Rollups.


LINK, PYTH

Sector: Blockchain infrastructure.

Industry Group: Computing.

Industry: Applications utilities.

Sub-Industry: Oracle.


MATIC

Sector: Blockchain infrastructure.

Industry Group: Blockchain utilities.

Industry: Network scaling “Layer-2 scaling side-chain solution”.

Sub-Industry: Side-chains.


IMX

Sector: Blockchain infrastructure.

Industry Group: Blockchain utilities. 

Industry: Network scaling  “Layer 2 scaling solution ”.

Sub-Industry: ZK-Rollup.


JASMY

Sector: Blockchain infrastructure.

Industry Group: Computing. 

Industry: Information Technology

Sub-Industry: Internet of Things (IoT).


FIL

Sector: Blockchain infrastructure.

Industry Group: Computing. 

Industry: Information Technology.

Sub-Industry: Compute & Private Storage - Shared Storage.



What do you suggest for the STX project to be accurate in my classification system.

The asset must be in one sector, one industry group, one industry and one sub-industry.

It can survive imho. Layer 2 have their own transactional based consensus. Not having a layer 1 does not necessarily mean those system cannot work apart, a code refactoring should be needed probably either to change the L1 they validate their consensus onto or to change their consensus based algorithm to make it fully independent.
