Beta Version Custom Gas Token Feature is live for the OP Stack

When deploying a L2 and L3 Chain, chain operators can enable this feature and launch with an ERC20 token instead of ETH for gas fees. With this feature, projects can ā€œenhance the utility of their existing tokens either by deploying a chain with their own token as the gas token or by deploying a chain with an established community token as the gas token, thus boosting their chainā€™s growth.ā€

Velodrome <> Metal

Metal, the L2 launched by Metallicus, will be the fifth Superchain L2 with a Velodrome deployment. Velodrome continues evolving into the liquidity hub of the Superchain!

Token House Nominations

Nominations for 2 governance bodies are open! Any delegate that would like to run to be a representative may self-nominate themselves on the forum using the respective template.

Deadline: June 5th

The CoC Council budget proposal defeated

The CoC operating budget was not approved, this means that the supportNERDs will continue to monitor the forum and enforce the Rules of Engagement as they previously have. SupportNERDs operate as an open contribution path within the Optimism Collective.

Upgrades move on to Citizenā€™s Veto

After receiving enough votes in the Token House Votes, both protocol upgrades and the governor upgrade proposals move on to a Citizensā€™ House Veto Vote.

If you disagree with the upgrades, you may cast your vote on Snapshot. A veto requires 45 veto votes. If you do not wish to veto but would like to register your participation in this voting cycle, you may select ā€œNo Vetoā€.

Deadline: June 5th

Retro Funding: Impact Metrics a Collective Experiment

Retro Funding 4 rewards impact by using metrics-based evaluation. In this post, Optimism outlines the process to define and refine metrics that measure various types of impact, ensuring that the metrics are robust, verifiable, and align with the communityā€™s values.

Badgeholders will test the refined metrics during the week of June 3rd through a simulated interface, providing additional feedback. This will culminate in a final session to discuss and decide on the metrics to be used in the upcoming round.
