Optimism has reached a significant decentralization milestone with its implementation of permissionless fault proofs on the OP Mainnet. This upgrade allows users to execute ETH and ERC-20 withdrawals directly to Ethereum Layer 1 without needing centralized intervention. Users can now challenge invalid withdrawals by providing collateral, promoting transparency and security. The initiative received strong community support and is part of Optimism's goal to achieve further decentralization stages. This feature will also be rolled out to other networks using the OP Stack infrastructure. Currently, OP Mainnet ranks as the third largest Layer 2 network with a total value locked of $7.31 billion.
