Blockscout is an open-source blockchain explorer designed for Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-based networks. It provides users with a comprehensive interface to search transactions, view account balances, verify and interact with smart contracts, and engage with decentralized applications across various Ethereum networks, including mainnets, testnets, sidechains, and Layer 2 solutions. Unlike centralized, closed-source explorers, Blockscout offers transparency and flexibility, supporting hundreds of chains and rollups within the broader blockchain ecosystem, such as Ethereum, Cosmos, Polkadot, Avalanche, and Near.
Comet Protocol is a cross-chain communication aggregator designed to seamlessly connect Ethereum, Bitcoin, and other Layer 1 blockchains. Inspired by the enduring nature of comets, the protocol aims to enable secure, continuous, and uninterrupted asset transfers across multiple blockchain networks. Its mission is to foster an interconnected and scalable blockchain ecosystem, breaking down barriers between isolated networks to accelerate decentralized finance adoption. The project is currently self-funded and does not have a formal governance process in place. Comet Protocol has not yet issued a token, with the tokenomics still in development.
LogX is a perp dex offering deep liquidity and an efficient leveraged trading experience, moving away from traditional reliance on external liquidity providers. It allows trading against a pool of stable assets, with innovative features like a dark oracle for price aggregation and a risk management framework. While LogX has launched an airdrop program, it currently lacks a native token, focusing on user engagement through rewards. Governance is code-centric, reflecting its early stage without a token-based decision-making process. The project has secured $6.1 million in funding from notable investors such as Sequoia Capital and Coinbase Ventures, marking its potential within the DeFi ecosystem.
RetroBridge is a self-funded multichain ecosystem that facilitates seamless connectivity across EVM and non-EVM chains within a single app. Governed by its two founders, it currently has no plans to launch a token.
RareShop is a consumer-focused Real-World Asset NFT launchpad that lets users easily acquire and trade NFTs tied to physical products. By linking on-chain transactions with tangible goods, RareShop connects digital assets with real-world items, broadening NFT utility and enhancing the user experience. The platform has no formal governance structure, no token, and is entirely self-bootstrapped.
Foundation Missions are Optimism-funded initiatives designed to make measurable progress toward the Season 7 Intent, establishing interoperable Stage 1 chains handling $250M in cross-chain asset transfers per month.
The Retro Funding: Dev Tooling program rewards open-source toolchain software that supports onchain application development on the Superchain, with a budget of up to 8M OP and monthly rewards from March to July 2025.
OP Mainnet, previously known as Optimism, is a Layer 2 scaling solution built on top of Ethereum. It utilizes optimistic rollups to provide faster and cheaper transactions while maintaining the security of the Ethereum mainnet.
Ink is a Layer 2 blockchain built by Kraken powered by the OP Stack. It connects Kraken’s 10+ million users to decentralized finance (DeFi), offering easy access to DEXs, lending, and yield protocols. By joining the Superchain, Inkchain combines Ethereum’s security with Layer 2 scalability for a streamlined DeFi experience.
Unichain is an L2 purpose-built for DeFi, exclusively on the OP Stack. Unichain is part of the Superchain’s path to interoperability, and will support ERC20s that are Superchain interop compatible. Uniswap Labs is also working with Flashbots to develop a new TEE-based block builder that reduces Unichain confirmation times from 1 second to 250 milliseconds.
Soneium is a Layer 2 blockchain developed by Sony Block Solutions Labs, a joint venture between Sony Group and Startale. Designed to bridge Web2 and Web3, Soneium aims to create a versatile, developer-friendly ecosystem that empowers creativity and innovation. It provides a scalable, accessible platform for developers, creators, and communities, enabling them to build and deploy applications that blend entertainment, gaming, finance, and more.
