This Protocol Upgrade makes several improvements to the Standard Rollup Charter’s Onchain Criteria. Primarily, it adds additional requirements for standardization which were previously enforced by the Optimism Foundation via Offchain Criteria.

This is a non-fork upgrade, meaning no upgrades to smart contracts or off-chain node software are required. This upgrade is accompanied by the “Superchain Registry 2.0,” a refactor of the Superchain Registry which reflects these improvements and makes other quality-of-life updates for its maintainers.

This small Protocol Upgrade strengthens the Onchain Criteria for Standard Chains as we prepare for more chains in the Superchain to move to Stage 1.
