This project, which will be carried out in collaboration with OP Labs, will join the Superchain ecosystem, which includes other Layer 2 rollup projects such as Coinbase’s Base, Kraken’s Ink, Zora, Mode, and SNAXchain. A testnet is also expected to be launched soon for the Layer 2 chain, which is still in development.

All chains in the Optimism Superchain ecosystem use optimistic rollups to reduce transaction costs on Ethereum, providing a more cost-effective infrastructure for decentralized applications. This ecosystem is governed by a DAO called Optimism Collective.

Swell’s OP chain will use ETH instead of rswETH as a gas token. The project will also allocate a portion of its sequencer revenues to Optimism Collective, a move that aligns with plans for all chains in the Superchain ecosystem. It is estimated that Swell could receive a significant grant from the Optimism Foundation for this transition; Kraken’s Ink project is also known to have received a similar grant.
