Key Points:

  • The “Superchain Token List” feature has been launched by Optimism.

  • This function will ensure that these chains remain connected.

  • This unified token list will make bridging tokens across Ethereum and the other OP chains easier.

The “Superchain Token List” feature, which will offer significant continuity across various chains, was announced by Optimism.

This single token list will make bridging tokens between Ethereum and multiple OP chains easier, as well as token discovery and maintenance.

Introducing the Superchain Token List, a unified token list for the Optimism ecosystem!We developed this list with our partners @BuildOnBase to make bridging tokens between @Ethereum and various OP chains easier. Full details:https://t.co/ZplATPLlFg

The procedure of this function is as follows: developers may post a PR (Pull Request) in the Superchain Token List Github library, and each token added to the list will be automatically validated based on the data supplied by the requester.

Throughout this process, Optimist will validate the token’s on-chain metadata and ensure that the asset may utilize the standard bridge. The procedure of creating and issuing tokens is also automated. When a token is added to the token list repository, it is instantly added to the Hyperchain token list.

This development and release procedure also makes use of automation. When a token is added to the token list repo, it is immediately added to the Superchain Token List. The Superchain Token List is now available as an npm package that can be imported straight into your application, removing the requirement for an RPC trigger to get the token list.

The Optimist Collective envisions the Superchain as a horizontally scalable network of chains that share security, a communication layer, and an open-source development stack. This permissionless system will allow new chains to be established on a shared network, promoting scalability, creative apps, and a revenue model that compensates app and protocol developers for their efforts.

In February, Optimist announced the creation of “Superchain,” a unified chain network that may be seen as a “chain platform” that unites numerous previously segregated L2 chains into an interoperable and composable system. The objective is to make launching L2 as simple as it is to deploy smart contracts on Ethereum today. A collaboration with Coinbase on Base is also in the works.
