What is Blast?

Blast is a blockchain built on the Optimism rollup, inheriting the powerful OP Stack. As a project dedicated to advancing Ethereum's capabilities, Blast focuses on scaling technology and fostering global collaboration in decentralized economies and governance systems. The Blast Collective, driving this initiative, develops open-source software to address key challenges in the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem. Guided by the principle of impact=profit, Blast rewards contributors proportionately, aiming to redefine incentives and positively impact the world. Explore our repository to engage with essential components of the OP Stack, contributing to the collaborative advancement of the Ethereum ecosystem.
