Optimism And Immutable Price Rally Continues With Monthly Gains Of Over 75%

The crypto market has been experiencing a bearish trading session lately. However, two cryptocurrencies have stood out owing to their impressive gains. Optimism (OP) and Immutable (IMX) have been rallying forward with their significant price hikes. Both cryptos have emerged as one of the top performing digital currencies recently by locking a 1-month gain of over 75% each.

About Optimism And Immutable

Optimism serves as a layer-two blockchain solution based on the Ethereum network. It enhances the scalability of the Ethereum ecosystem by employing optimistic rollups, a technique ensuring transactions are recorded on Optimism with trust, yet ultimately secured on the Ethereum mainnet. It is worthy to note that Optimism’s prominence as a substantial scaling solution for Ethereum, boasts a Total Value Locked (TVL) exceeding $500 million.

On the other hand, Immutable is the first layer-two solution for scaling NFTs based on Ethereum. It aims to fix Ethereum’s issues like slow speed, not-so-great user experience, lack of money flow, and slow work for developers. Instead, users get quick trading, a lot more room to grow, and no fees for making or trading NFTs—all without risking the safety of users or assets. For this, Immutable uses STARK zk-rollups, a tech that Vitalik Buterin, Ethereum’s co-founder, fully supports.
