The Optimism (OP) token rose to $1.54 in preparation for the activation of the Bedrock upgrade for the Optimism layer 2 Ethereum network.

After a correction, the asset is now trading around $1.45. This marks a growth of 3.5% compared to Bitcoin’s 4.1% over the same period, resulting in a 3% increase in market capitalization (CoinGecko).
