In late April, the Optimism team announced an airdrop. The native token OP is intended to form part of the governance framework for the project’s L2 solution for Ethereum scaling.

During the first round of the airdrop, 214 million tokens were initially planned to be distributed among 248,000 addresses — 5% of the total supply of 4.29 billion OP. However, the developers reduced the list of participants by 17,000 addresses.
