This is a very bad look for Sony's L2 (censoring transactions via its sequencer), but also props to Superchain for having the foresight to prevent that.

Also, @/Sony why are you here if you don't care about crypto?

Sony's L2 just showed us something wild about OP Stack censorship resistance:

Their attempt to block "unapproved" tokens spectacularly backfired in less than 24 hours after launch.

FWIW, this is a pretty bad UX and you should probably not build on Sony's L2

i saw mixed thoughts ab this (i’m ambivalent). some folks said it’s fair for them to do so, since it’s their centralized company’s chain. 

i also saw, one benefit bc of OP stack was users could still go through l1 and not be censored.

For me it’s like why launch an L2 or even be in crypto if they’re gonna censor in a way that’s not even really justified. They’re allowed to do that, I guess, and we can just not use it 🤷‍♂️
