Techub News, citing CryptoBriefing, reports that the Optimism Foundation has proposed converting 546.9 million unused OP tokens from past airdrops, valued at approximately $48 million, into a strategic ecosystem fund. The initiative targets faster growth on OP Mainnet and wider adoption of OP Enterprise. The foundation said airdrops were once a key growth tool, but institutional adoption is now the priority. A fourth-year budget update indicates new OP token commitments would be reduced by about one-third, with funds redirected toward revenue-generating and enterprise client acquisition programs.
