Optimism Blockchain Approves Token Buyback Proposal
- Proposal Approval: The Optimism blockchain governance community approved a proposal with 33.27% support to allocate 50% of Superchain revenue for token buybacks over the next 12 months, potentially utilizing around 2,700 ETH, valued at approximately $8 million, to enhance the utility and value of the OP token.
- Revenue Allocation Shift: Previously, 100% of Superchain revenue was directed to a treasury overseen by the Optimism governance community, and this proposal aims to change that model, strengthening the link between the token's value and the success of the Superchain ecosystem.
- Partnership Formation: Optimism will partner with an over-the-counter provider to execute monthly conversions of Ether (ETH) to OP, with the funds being held in the treasury alongside other ETH, ensuring effective utilization of resources.
- Market Reaction: Despite the proposal being seen as a significant shift in OP token dynamics, the market response has been tepid, with OP down 1.9% over the past 24 hours, currently trading at $0.26, indicating cautious sentiment among investors regarding this change.
