About Optimism

Optimism is a Layer 2 scaling solution designed to enhance the Ethereum blockchain. Its primary objective is to significantly reduce transaction times and costs by processing transactions off the main Ethereum chain. The project was founded by a team of experienced developers, including Jinglan Wang, Ben Jones, and Karl Floersch. Optimism's innovative approach utilizes "Optimistic Rollups." This technology bundles transactions and executes them on a separate chain before periodically submitting the results back to the Ethereum mainnet. The "Optimistic" designation stems from the assumption that all bundled transactions are valid by default, unless a fraud proof is submitted and successfully verified within a designated challenge period. This mechanism dramatically accelerates transaction finality and throughput.
