Maintenance Upgrade Proposal: Mode, Metal, Zora, and Dust Ownership Transfer to Conduit

Proposal Type: Maintenance Upgrade Proposal

Voting Cycle: Off-cycle (Special Voting Cycle, subject to the standard veto period)

Summary

This proposal requests the Optimism Security Council return administrative ownership of four chains operated by Conduit, to Conduit’s designated Safes:

  • Mode (34443)
  • Metal L2 (1750)
  • Zora (7777777)
  • Dust (55378)

For each network, the proposal transfers the L1 ProxyAdmin (L1PAO) ownership, the DisputeGameFactory (DGF) ownership, and the L2 ProxyAdmin ownership to Conduit’s designated Safes.

These changes are purely administrative: no protocol behavior changes and no impact on end users or other Superchain members.

Motivation

Mode, Metal, and Zora are operated by Conduit while the Optimism Collective holds their L1 ProxyAdmin keys. OP Labs has provided security monitoring and upgrade support for these chains. On July 30, 2026, written notice was delivered to each chain’s governor that this support will end following a 30-day notice period. Returning the keys to Conduit lets the chains be managed independently going forward.

Dust was inadvertently deployed with the Optimism Security Council holding its L1 ProxyAdmin keys. Because Dust is operated by Conduit and will not be part of the Superchain Registry, the Optimism Collective’s administrative custody is unnecessary and Conduit has requested the keys be returned.

All four chains’ smart contracts currently reference OP Mainnet’s SuperchainConfig. That contract is shared infrastructure and is not transferred by this proposal; after taking ownership of the ProxyAdmin, Conduit can repoint each chain to its own SuperchainConfig.

Following execution, Mode, Metal, and Zora will no longer be governed by Optimism and will be updated accordingly in the Superchain Registry.

Specifications

  • Current Mainnet L1PAO and DisputeGameFactory owner for Metal, Mode, Zora and Dust (OP safe): 0x5a0Aae59D09fccBdDb6C6CcEB07B7279367C3d2A
  • Current L2PAO (L1 alias): 0x6B1BAE59D09fccBdDb6C6CcEB07B7279367C4E3B
  • New L1PAO and DisputeGameFactory owner (Conduit safe): 0x4a4962275DF8C60a80d3a25faEc5AA7De116A746
  • New L2PAO (L1 alias): 0x5b5A62275DF8c60A80D3a25FAeC5aA7De116b857

The transfers are implemented in superchain-ops tasks as one bundled L1 and DGF ownership-transfer task and one bundled L2 ProxyAdmin transfer task per network.

Action Plan

Upon governance approval and following the standard veto period, the Optimism Security Council will verify and execute the transfers per network, in order: the L1 ownership transfer first, then the L2 ProxyAdmin transfer (a deposit that finalizes on L2 after inclusion).

Following execution, the Superchain Registry will be updated to reflect that Mode, Metal, and Zora are no longer governed by Optimism.

Conclusion

This proposal returns administrative ownership of Mode, Metal, Zora, and Dust’s chain to Conduit. The change is entirely administrative, modifies no protocol code, and only impacts the chains outlined in this post.
