Boba Network, a Layer 2 multichain built on OP Stack and designed for intelligent hybrid applications enabled by HybridCompute, has joined the Superchain ecosystem, a network of horizontally scalable chains that share security, a communication layer, and an open-source development stack. This strategic move marks a critical milestone in Boba Network’s journey to improve blockchain interoperability and scalability, opening new possibilities for decentralized applications (DApps) and real-world connectivity. By joining the Superchain, Boba Network reinforces its commitment to a decentralized, open, and accessible blockchain landscape.
The Superchain ecosystem embodies a collaborative vision for the future of blockchain technology. It is designed to create a unified network of Layer 2 (L2) solutions that work together to scale Ethereum and other blockchains without compromising decentralization, security, and user-centric design. Boba Network’s decision to integrate with this ecosystem is a natural progression in its mission to build an accessible and interoperable blockchain space for all.
One of Boba Network’s major contributions to the Superchain ecosystem is its development work on Erigon as an execution client, further strengthening the network’s resilience and fostering innovation and creativity without abandoning Ethereum’s core engineering values. Additionally, Boba Network has open-sourced a method to configure L2 OP Stack chains to use custom gas tokens, including the ability to bridge ETH, based on Optimism’s custom fee token.
Alan Chiu, CEO of Enya Labs, a major contributor to Boba Network: “The Superchain furthers Boba Network’s mission to be the home of intelligent hybrid applications that span use cases such as generative AI, DeFi, gaming, and real-world assets (RWA). We are excited to partner with the Optimism team to continue contributing to Boba Network and providing developers with the resources they need to thrive on the network and in the Superchain ecosystem, such as the Boba Liftoff Accelerator.”
“The Superchain ecosystem is home to visionary creators at the forefront of blockchain innovation, and we are thrilled to welcome Boba Network to our ecosystem. Boba’s unique hybrid approach brings new potential for smarter applications and broader adoption, and we look forward to their growth on OP Stack,” said Smit Vachhani, Head of Business Development at Optimism Unlimited
