What is Optimism (OP)? As
Kriptokoin.com also reported, Optimism (OP) is a layer-2 (layer-2) scaling solution for Ethereum that can support all Ethereum applications. It uses optimistic aggregation technology to group batches to save gas fees. OP is the local government token primarily used to manage the protocol. Optimism is an EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) compatible Blockchain created for simplicity and practical use to make Ethereum transactions cheaper and faster than usual.

OP will be a governance token for the protocol’s Token House, one of the two centers that make up Optimism’s governance system. Token House is responsible for managing the network’s treasury funds, upgrades, and parameters. The token supply will amount to 4,294,967,296 OPs, but only 225,485,783 OPs will be part of the initial circulating supply. Among those eligible for the airdrop are the first users of Optimism, which had over 250,000 addresses in April. Meanwhile, the other hub, Citizen House, will distribute retroactive public goods from the fees generated by the network.
