Welcome to the Superchain Vibes website
What’s better than multiple Chains ?
Multiple Chains working together ! That’s the Superchain.
Multiple Chains working together ! That’s the Superchain.
A collective of unified blockchains. A network of interconnected chains for horizontal scalability and enhanced interoperability…
**From OP Stack Forks to OP Chains to the Superchain :**
Optimism's technology, the OP Stack, is a set of modular codes that are open and accessible as open source. This code is forkable.
**OP Stack Forks** refer to Layer 2 blockchains built using the OP Stack but operate independently from Optimism's governance and don't contribute sequencer revenue back to the Collective. They may not share security or interoperability with OP Chains in the Superchain.
**OP Chains**, on the other hand, run the governance-approved release of the OP Stack. They align with Optimism’s governance decisions and contribute sequencer revenue back to the Collective, inheriting Superchain features in the future. In recent months, we have indeed observed the emergence of numerous blockchains leveraging this technology: the OP Chains. (see the site: [OP Chain List](https://opchainlist.com/))
**The Superchain** goes much further. **The Superchain is characterized by intense collaboration. Chains that join Optimism's Superchain participate in the development of common code and share updates. But above all, they work together towards interoperability**
These blockchains also participate in **a unified governance** within the Optimism Collective.
Opting into the Superchain as an OP Chain offers users a homogenous experience with shared security and governance standards. It represents a more unified, collaborative blockchain network within the Optimism ecosystem.
The partners of the Superchain embody the [optimistic vision](https://www.optimism.io/vision) and contribute to the financing of the ecosystem's public goods, by retroceding a part of their transaction fees (collected by their sequencer) to the treasury of the Optimism Collective, which then redistributes the funds via Retro Funding .
