Introduction

We were tasked with evaluating the votable supply required to prevent a successful attack. This amount has been calculated by identifying the key factors that influence the value and then extensive research into them. We have utilized several methods including analysis of old data to arrive at an accurate conclusion. The ideal output would be an as-is overview of the current state, a best practice overview, and recommendations on how to get there.

We have documented our entire research in this Google Doc. Navigate through the document using the Tabs on the left-hand side to jump to specific sections.

Special Note

Meetings with the Optimism Foundation and OP Labs teams played a key role in shaping the parameters and refining the thought process behind the finalization of DIVS. These collaborative discussions helped align on key assumptions, validate the methodology, and ensure that the model reflects realistic governance dynamics.
