Optimism and OP Labs chief executive officer (CEO) Jing Wang announced the launch of OP Enterprise today - a chain deployment suite for enterprise clients looking to build native blockchains while retaining revenue.
The product aims to provide easy-to-work-with infrastructure for “companies that want to build businesses, not become blockchain experts,” said Wang on X.
Chains built via OP Enterprise will become part of the OP Stack, which is home to more than $6 billion in total value locked (TVL) across more than 50 blockchains, including Base and Unichain.
Optimism’s blog post cites three different builder tiers available via OP Enterprise with final products ready in “8-12 weeks.” The tiers differentiate deployer involvement levels, ranging from launching on OP Mainnet and eventually launching a native chain, to a native blockchain fully managed by OP Enterprise.
The move comes as regulatory clarity in the U.S. and Europe makes it feasible for traditional finance and fintech firms to launch their own chains. Over the next year, users can expect native blockchains from the likes of Robinhood and Stripe, and OP Enterprise looks to offer an easy blockchain launch solution for prospective competitors.
OP Enterprise may also indirectly drive value to the OP token, as Optimism tokenholders voted to approve a 12-month OP buyback program, which utilizes Superchain revenue to buy and burn OP tokens.
OP is down 10% today amid a broad market selloff, with BTC falling 5.5% and ETH slipping by 6.6%.
