OP Stack

The market doesn’t seem to accept OP is Base’s token. When Jesse was on Bloomberg recently, even Mike Novogratz asked multiple times when Base will launch a token.

Are people just cynical about the relationship between Base <> Optimism? 

What am I missing?

OP turning into ATOM has always been a risk.

After all Cosmos has Binance.

However, I hope their plan to drive OP value via superchain partner sequencing fees succeeds.
