Builder intent

deploy on a low-cost Ethereum L2

Base, OP Mainnet, and Arbitrum One are all production EVM L2s with low fees. Base and Optimism share the OP Stack and Superchain roadmap; Arbitrum One brings the deepest DeFi liquidity. The choice is mostly ecosystem fit and where your users are.

Recommended stack

settlement_or_execution82

Base

Low-cost OP Stack L2 with a large consumer distribution surface.

settlement_or_execution76

OP Mainnet

Reference OP Stack chain on the Superchain interoperability roadmap.

settlement_or_execution80

Arbitrum One

Mature, high-throughput L2 with deep DeFi liquidity.

Considered and excluded

arbitrum-orbit — Use Orbit only if you need your own sovereign appchain rather than a shared L2.

Risks

Each L2 has different bridge, finality, and tooling specifics; confirm RPC, explorer, and oracle availability for your chain.

Next steps

Pick an L2 by ecosystem fit, liquidity, and where your users already are.
Confirm your oracle, indexer, and account-abstraction providers support the chosen chain.
Deploy to the chain's testnet and verify gas and finality assumptions.
