Optimism is gearing up for its eventual mainnet upgrade<\/a> next week. This upgrade will offer lower protocol and security fees for users on the platform. This led to the ecosystem\u2019s governance token, OP, enjoying an increase in price, albeit a modest 3.7% in the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n This price movement only came after last month\u2019s dismal performance where OP dropped<\/a> by over 30% in the monthly timeframe.<\/p>\n With the promise of lower fees along with Ethereum-like security for the coming upgrade, we might see OP continue its present bullishness.<\/p>\n Touted as the Bedrock mainnet upgrade,<\/a> it aims to improve efficiency to drive down costs for investors on the platform. According to Optimism\u2019s recent blog post, it should be able to drive protocol and security costs by a whopping 47%. The upgrade will use channels that will be split again to further optimize data compression.<\/p>\n \ud83d\ude80\ud83c\udf10 Layer2 network Optimism is gearing up for the Bedrock Upgrade soon!<\/p>\n \ud83d\udca1\ud83d\udc8e Discover how this game-changing update boosts scalability, security, and efficiency for Optimism, and what it means for the future of #Ethereum<\/a>.#Optimism<\/a> $OP<\/a> #Layer2<\/a> #EIP1559<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 KuCoin (@kucoincom) June 2, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n This upgrade also corresponds to Ethereum’s Dencun upgrade, which will drive down on-chain costs as a result of danksharding. Danksharding is a process that makes data blobs available for use by Layer 2 protocols like Optimism. This improvement would make Optimism more attractive to developers.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Along with the Bedrock upgrade is the upcoming<\/a> OP Stack Mods which are improvements on the OP Stack layer by community members. These modifications can be voted on by the community to be an official part of the OP Stack layer.<\/p>\n The upgrade also opens a path for Optimism to include improvements on its fault proofs with incentives for the community to propose improvements in the system.<\/p>\n The token\u2019s current trajectory puts it on a perfect path towards higher highs in the coming days. At the moment, OP bulls are targeting $1.70 in the medium to long term with a potential to break through toward the $2 range. If the momentum permits it, investors and traders should continue its current price movement for higher gains.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With Bitcoin gaining ground at the time of writing, the gains made by OP bulls should be boosted in the medium term. However, investors should be careful of any bearish advances that might come in the next couple of days.<\/p>\nOptimism: Laying The Bedrock For Future Growth<\/strong><\/h2>\n
