Optimism
Why Optimism is up 1.2% in the last hour
Analysis
Optimism (OP) rose 1.2% over the past hour despite a broader security scare after The Block reported Drift linked a $280 million exploit to a six-month social engineering campaign attributed to suspected North Korean actors. With the report focused on Drift rather than Optimism specifically, OP’s modest uptick likely reflects resilience or rotation within the market as traders digested the news without pricing in direct protocol-related risk to Optimism.
