Of note, Ryan Wyatt has previously been the president of the Polygon Labs, the organization behind the development of the Polygon blockchain. Wyatt left Polygon Labs in July after then-Chief Legal Officer Marc Boiron was promoted to CEO. Furthermore, the new CGO has previously served on YouTube. During his time at the streaming platform, the CGO was exploring exploring non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and digital ownership. His experience in the two projects is invaluable for Optimism. Speaking on this, Wyatt stated;
I loved my time at YouTube, I loved my time at Polygon. I’m super happy with the work that I did at both of those places. I’m so eager about what Optimism can do and what they’ve already done.
The Optimism project remains one of the most promising as a fast, stable, and scalable L2 blockchain built by Ethereum developers, for Ethereum developers. The mainnet boasts over $2 billion in on-chain value and over 141 million successful transactions on the network. Founded in 2019 and launching its network operations gradually throughout 2021, the ecosystem has undergone tremendous developments in a few years.
A few months ago, the project celebrated massive recognition with Coinbase, a publicly listed US company, launching its very own OP Chain powered by Optimism.
At the time of press, Optimism native token, OP, has recorded a nearly 3 percent drop in the last 24 hours to trade at $1.77. The altcoin has lost nearly 45 percent of its value since reaching its all-time high of $3.22 about 9 months ago. As wider market sentiments turn bullish, investors are optimistic OP will be one of the best-performing coins in the market.
