Gelato Network, a well-known platform in the Web3 sector for its roll-up as a service, has reached a significant milestone with the introduction of the Lisk L2 Developer Mainnet. This achievement signifies a crucial moment for Gelato as it expands its reach and improves its offerings in the decentralized ecosystem.
The launch of the Lisk L2 Developer Mainnet is not just another layer; it is part of Gelato’s strategic plan to deepen its integration with the Optimism network, ushering in a new era of interoperability and efficiency in blockchain technology.
During the initial Devnet phase, Gelato played a key role in setting up essential infrastructure components such as bridges, decentralized exchanges (DEXs), and applications in preparation for the public mainnet release. This phase was crucial in ensuring the seamless integration of Lisk L2 into the Optimism collective known as the Superchain.
This integration aims to boost sequencer revenue and contribute to a unified network of rollups that promise to transform the interactions between developers and applications on the blockchain.
The transition of Lisk Devnet to become the first Layer 1 blockchain migrating to Optimism’s network represents a significant advancement in the blockchain industry. This move leverages Optimism’s OP Stack to create a cohesive framework for rollups, enhancing communication, security, and governance across the network.
The Superchain, now incorporating Lisk among its 13+ chain integrations, supports asset bridging without fragmentation, shared governance under the OP Collective, and a strong security model that benefits all participating chains.
In addition, Gelato Network has expanded its ecosystem to include over 17 infrastructure providers, offering a variety of services ranging from Web3 functionalities to user interface solutions and comprehensive analytics.
The Lisk L2 Developer Mainnet, now live on Gelato, has seen bridges, DEXs, and apps deployed during the @LiskHQ Devnet phase in preparation for the public mainnet launch. This phase has brought Lisk L2 into the Superchain by contributing sequencer revenue to the @optimism collective.
This robust infrastructure supports a wide range of applications and developers, including prominent names like Velodrome, Thirdweb, and the Secret Network, enhancing the developer experience through improved interoperability and feature-rich capabilities.
The growth statistics from Lisk’s Q1 performance demonstrate the impact of these developments, with over 32,000 wallets created since the testnet’s inception, facilitating more than 10,000 contracts and exceeding 43,000 daily transactions. The testnet has processed over 6.3 million transactions in total, showcasing the platform’s scalability and the high demand for its services.
Gelato’s integration with the Optimism collective and the launch of the Lisk L2 Developer Mainnet are not just technical upgrades but are crucial in shaping the future of decentralized finance (DeFi) and decentralized applications (dApps). By enabling seamless cross-chain functionality and fostering a collaborative environment under the OP Collective governance, Gelato is setting new standards in the blockchain industry, driving innovation, and simplifying the complexities of decentralized networks.
