$OP · Uniswap is handing its own chain to Optimism to run
At 05:19 UTC on October 14, 2026, OP traded at $0.154, up about 12% in 24 hours and about 61% in 30 days. Bitcoin was flat.
Why: Unichain, the Uniswap layer 2, started its move to OP Enterprise on October 13 with testnet. Mainnet follows on October 29.
The example: after the move, Optimism runs the production stack for Unichain. Sequencers, RPC, monitoring and incident response. Chain ID, contracts, balances and Uniswap v2, v3 and v4 stay the same.
The other side: native interop has no live date yet, and OP still sits about 97% below its $4.84 peak.
