Unichain, Uniswap's DeFi-focused Layer 2 built on the OP Stack, announced its roadmap to mainnet, targeted for early 2025. The rollout will follow a phased approach, including testing, infrastructure provider access, public mainnet launch, and experimental testing for the Unichain Validation Network. Unichain was first introduced in October 2024 with the launch of the Unichain Sepolia Testnet. Since its debut, the Unichain testnet has processed over 50 million transactions and deployed 4 million contracts. On January 6, 2025, Unichain Sepolia will upgrade to permissionless fault proofs. The Unichain mainnet will follow with live permissionless fault proofs from day one. Unichain will feature native Superchain Interoperability, cross-chain intents, and 1-second confirmation times
