I really do feel lucky to have front-row seats to the growth of the Superchain People are seriously underestimating the impact the it will have on the world Optimism has so many 2025 catalysts it makes my head spin... here are some of them:

Native Interop and SuperERC20s: The devs have been working HARD for over a year on this, and we are finally a stones-throw away. While it may take some time for Dapps to take advantage of it, it has HUGE user UI unlocks and increasing network effects for the Superchain

The Stage-1 Explosion: This year we will see and order of magnitude more stage-1 chains, and by operating on the OP stack, it will become easier and easier for new chains to follow this path. This can attract capital that was previously skittish and also unlocks Vitalik tweets

@modenetwork has been absolutely killing it with AI x DeFi. They literally created an AI-Agent app store where you can have AI agents do a number of onchain tasks for you TODAY. They've also put their money where there mouth is with hackathons, bootcamps, and dev tools

@inkonchain launched recently and this month is expected to unlock a number of DeFi legos (including @VelodromeFi). People don't remember that Base actually wasn't an overnight success... and @ak47ink has prioritized shipping fast in a way that I think will be dividends

@soneium is launching this year. Sony's portfolio has an insane number of ways to benefit from blockchain, and now they have a home to do it from. I'm expecting NFTs and gaming to come first, but am excited about the potential for IoT and micropayments in the future.

@derivexyz has been hitting new highs every single week and recently published their 2025 roadmap. Highlights: * Ai-Powered Trading * dUSD stablecoin * Better spreads and Liquidity

@base has continued to do well to the point that it's success has somehow turned @jessepollak into a controversial figure. Having met him in person, Jesse is truly a stand-up guy and his focus on builders is a major reason behind Base's success. I don't see them slowing down any time soon.

@unichain is launching soon™ and is coming with a crazy amount of technical innovations that puts MEV back into the hands of the users. Not only can they become an successful L2 in their own right; their experiments improve the OP stack as a whole and lifts everyone with them.

@VelodromeFi and @AerodromeFi are not only some of the most competent people in crypto, they have been focused on the Superchain from the beginning and are hard at work prepping for Interop. Not to mention the volume records they seem to be breaking pretty much every week

@worldcoin has been making BIG moves with their distributed orbs and have been massively accelerating onboarding efforts This is coming at the same time as their Mini Apps store is likely to get some real traction AND the increasing importance of proof-of-human in an AI world

@Metal_L2 has hooks major hooks into banking with The Digital Banking Network (TBDN) that are set to benefit from BOTH an improved regulatory environment AND superchain interop, providing an absolutely seamless fiat onboarding experience for the entire Superchain.

@swellnetworkio has being hitting it's stride as the hub for restaked assets on the Superchain and has already accumulated a huge amount of ETH after just launching in December.

The beautiful thing is that the success of every single project above lifts every other project, and by extension the entire world. We are all growing the pie together in an ethereum-aligned way. We've come so far, but still have 99% of the journey in front of us. I can't wait.
