In its most recent announcement, the organization disclosed the outcome of its latest initiative. It highlighted the chains that have successfully completed the upgrade, emphasizing that these chains will operate on identical underlying code. This uniformity is expected to facilitate continuous upgrades and bolster security. The platform also shared details about the upgrade proposal.
The Optimism Foundation, a blockchain solution built on Ethereum's L2 network, introduced the upgrade proposal aimed at enhancing the security and upgradability of the Superchain. The proposal enables L1 contracts to be upgraded across multiple chains through a single transaction, allowing different chains to share a common smart contract implementation.
This simplifies the deployment and upgrade processes, particularly in emergency situations where quick smart contract upgrades are essential to mitigate vulnerabilities. Furthermore, the upgrade extends the SystemConfig to include contract addresses within the network.
By offering consumers access to the system's contract addresses, developers can provide a more immersive experience. The proposal also addressed scenarios involving critical security issues, outlining plans to collaborate with the community and communicate extensively in the event of upgrade cancellations. The upgrade introduces atomic upgrades across chains, reducing the potential risks of exploitation.
