The developers of the second-tier solution for the Ethereum network Optimism, which previously only had access to certain projects, announced the removal of restrictions.
The launch of the main Optimism network took place in July, but only developers from the “white list” could create their projects based on the solution. After quite a long testing, the Optimism developers decided to remove the restrictions and now everyone can deploy their smart contracts on the network.
“Optimism is approaching its first birthday. All this time we have been working on improving and preparing the network. And now we are ready to remove the constraints. As of today, Optimism has no “whitelisting” solution and anyone can freely deploy contracts. This is a new chapter in the history of our project, “- says the blog of the Optimism developers.
One of the latest enhancements to the Optimism solution was the EVM Equivalence feature. This is full support for Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) features. That is, now developers will be able to transfer smart contracts from the Ethereum network “in one click”.
Now in projects of decentralized finance in the Optimism network, about $ 375 million is blocked. However, after the project is opened for everyone, the indicator should increase significantly, because the competing solution Arbitrum has blocked assets exceeding $ 2 billion.
Recall that the developers announced a tool that allows you to launch smart contracts based on the Optimism network “in one click” back in September.
