Excuse me, but I'm a bit confused about something. I've been hearing a lot about Optimism recently, and some people seem to be referring to it as a blockchain. However, I'm not entirely sure if that's accurate. Can you clarify for me if Optimism is indeed a blockchain, and if so, what sets it apart from other blockchains in the market? I'd really appreciate any insight you can provide. Is Optimism a blockchain?

To address this, the decision was made to rebrand "Optimism" to "OP Mainnet".

This move serves to delineate between the OP Mainnet blockchain and the broader Collective, vibe, and ethos that "Optimism" has come to embody.
