Optimism Foundation has a new idea to implement — allocating 50% of the revenue generated from the Superchain for monthly OP token buybacks. At first glance, what changes does this operation bring? Actually, it's quite interesting.

On one hand, monthly buybacks can directly support the price of OP, which is a positive signal for token holders. On the other hand, this mechanism allows the project's revenue to flow back into token value support, creating a virtuous cycle — the higher the revenue, the larger the buyback amount. However, some may ask, if 50% is used for buybacks, how is the remaining 50% allocated? This involves the foundation's other operational expenses and ecosystem development investments.

Such operations are becoming increasingly common in the DeFi space, aiming to strengthen the project's long-term value through economic incentives. How long this can last depends on whether the Superchain's revenue can maintain stable growth.
