The OP Stack allows teams to permissionlessly deploy their own Layer 2 networks leveraging Optimism\u2019s technology. Optimism said OP Stack-based chains will be unified into an interconnected ecosystem of networks called the \u201cSuperchain\u201d in the future.<\/p>\n<p>OP Stack-based chains appeared poised to dominate Ethereum\u2019s Layer 2 sector in mid-2023. Base, the OP Stack-based Layer 2 from Coinbase, enjoyed rocketing activity following its <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thedefiant.io\/base-activity-surges-after-public-launch\">mainnet rollout<\/a> in August to quickly emerge as a leading Layer 2 by transaction volume.<\/p>\n<p>Base tagged an all-time high of 21.3 (TPS) in September, according to L2beat. Coupled with Optimism\u2019s OP Mainnet, which tagged its own record high of 10.3 TPS in late July, the burgeoning superchain would have topped the L2 rankings by throughput throughout most of September.<\/p>\n<div class=\"relative flex items-center gap-2 rounded-md bg-[#191919] p-2 my-4 lg:hidden\">\n<div class=\"relative group  flex w-max items-center gap-2  p-2 text-sm text-white mx-auto\"><strong class=\"whitespace-nowrap w-min sm:w-auto bg-gradient-to-r from-[#9FF9D2] to-[#DB9FF9] bg-clip-text text-transparent\">DeFi Alpha<\/strong><span class=\"whitespace-nowrap  w-min sm:w-auto border-l border-white pl-1 lg:hidden\">Premium Content<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"tooltip font-heading shadow-cta absolute hidden lg:visible left-6 z-10 -top-[80px] w-max max-w-xs translate-y-full flex-col rounded-lg bg-[#EEEEF4] p-3 text-left text-xs text-black group-hover:flex lg:left-auto lg:right-4\">Looking for Alpha?
