Base rates turn a price target into a frequency: how often a move that size has happened before.
Where it came from
Optimism grew out of the Plasma Group, a research collective that dissolved in 2020 and turned its work into a rollup. Its distinguishing choice was not technical but organisational: a stated commitment to fund public goods from network revenue, formalised as retroactive funding for work already done.
What it does
Optimism is an optimistic rollup and, more consequentially, the maintainer of the OP Stack, a shared codebase that other chains deploy. Those chains form a network that shares standards and, increasingly, settlement infrastructure.
What moves the price
- How many chains run on the OP Stack and what share of their revenue flows back, which turns a codebase into an income stream.
- Sequencer revenue net of data-posting costs on Ethereum.
- Retroactive public goods funding rounds, which distribute tokens on a recurring schedule.
- Unlocks from the initial allocation to investors and contributors.
