Superchain Upgrade 16 has passed OP Governance and is scheduled to go live next week. The upgrade adds smart contract changes that support the road to interoperability, and it raises decentralization and security to meet L2Beat's updated criteria for chains to remain at Stage 1, which the article says applies to OP Mainnet, Base, Ink, and Unichain. It also increases gas limits to 500 million gas per block as part of other OP Stack improvements.

- The Case for Specialization: What the Ethereum L2 Roadmap Means for Enterprises
Karl Dot argues that enterprises can get customization and control from their own Ethereum L2 chain without giving up interoperability, and that the Ethereum ecosystem is further along in solving this than most people realize. The article presents Optimism's OP Enterprise as the tool for this, saying it offers modular options such as block builder policies, pluggable ZK and fault proofs, and flexible data availability. It names Kraken (Ink), OKX (X Layer) and Sony (Soneium) as examples of companies that have built on the Optimism stack, which it says has more than 50 chains in production securing over $16B in value.
