What is OP Mainnet?

OP Mainnet is Optimism's flagship Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain, founded in 2019. It processes transactions in batches using optimistic rollups, giving users access to low-cost and near-instantaneous transactions. OP Mainnet is part of the broader Optimism ecosystem powered by the OP Stack, a fully open-source, modular framework for launching blockchains. The OP Stack powers 50+ chains, processes 17M transactions per day, and secures $14B in total assets. OP Mainnet itself offers 99.99% uptime and an average transaction fee of $0.001, providing a seamless pathway from building an app to launching a full-service chain.
