Optimism has announced the arrival of permissionless fault proofs and Stage 1 decentralization on the OP Mainnet. This upgrade allows users to execute withdrawals from the Layer 2 to Ethereum without requiring action from a centralized entity. The open-source fault proofs mark a significant step forward for the Optimism Superchain, enhancing its decentralization and security. OPLabsPBC is celebrating this milestone after successfully shipping the fault proofs on the OP Mainnet.
