The Fjord Upgrade is coming to the OP Stack on July 10 🔴

Conduit will roll out this upgrade to 20+ Mainnets and 100+ Testnets

Fjord reduces costs for chains using ETH DA, adds a precompile to unlock savings for smart wallets, and raises the max block gas limit

Fjord adds support for alternative compression algorithms, starting with Brotli

This means significant cost savings for OP chains using ETH DA

The @base team evaluated Brotli across 4 OP Stack chains and found that it can reduce L1 data costs by 5-15%

Fjord also adds a precompile for the secp256r1 elliptic curve widely used in modern apps and devices, including Passkeys, Apple Secure Enclave, Android Keystore, and more.

This lets smart wallets cheaply perform more complicated functions on OP chains

Also included in the Fjord upgrade:

- L1 gas oracle improvements
- Quality-of-life changes for chain operators
- 10x higher maximum block gas limits
