Optimism's Superchain Interop is launching on mainnet, expanding smart contract capabilities across multiple chains. The system enables seamless cross-chain applications without traditional bridging friction.
Key features demonstrated at ETHDenver:
- VeraSwap: Single-chain-like trading experience across multiple chains
- Agent9000: Automated cross-chain execution
- SuperWallet: Unified balances and instant transfers
- Cross-chain flash loans and lending protocols
Developers can now experiment on the Superchain Interop Devnet using familiar tools. 24/7 support available via exclusive Discord.
The Superchain is going mainstream.
LINE mini-apps are coming to Soneium 💿 We’re bringing the LINE MINI-App onchain, connecting with 200 million active users LINE audience. Soneium is accelerating onchain gaming, this integration enhances web3 user experience, which will onboard users into decentralized
Superchain interop connects fragmented chains into one smooth, unified experience. Event reading lets apps easily compose across chains with no extra trust assumptions needed. It just works.
Gigabrains at eth denver are understanding what event reading can unlock for their own applications 🧠🔴 (and also what it unlocks for others via composability)

Low latency interop that mitigates the double spend problem is coming to the Superchain. Test it out now.
Superchain Interop is not just about moving assets. it is about applications that operate across multiple chains as if they were one. Last week at ETHDenver, builders proved what happens when chains can communicate natively. Here are some of our favorite findings. ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓
tired: jumping through hoops across chains to collect enough funds for a swap wired: swap everything in one go superchain interop, less clicking, more swapping. come build the future with us as we test these concepts out on devnet.

🔧 Superchain Upgrade 16a Replaces U16 with Safer Approach

**Superchain Upgrade 16a** is pending governance approval for rollout on **Sep 22** (Sepolia) and **Oct 2** (Mainnet). This maintenance upgrade replaces U16 with a more cautious approach: - **Removes withdrawal-proving logic** from production based on partner feedback - **Introduces system-level feature toggles** via SystemConfig for per-chain flexibility - **Adds development feature flags** for testing interop features safely **Key improvements:** - ETHLockbox becomes first toggle-controlled feature - Chains on U15 can upgrade directly to U16a - U16 chains can transition seamlessly Interop code remains in the repository for future upgrades. The update focuses on enhanced safety and flexibility rather than new features. [Read full proposal](https://gov.optimism.io/t/maintenance-upgrade-proposal-u16a/10288)
