<p>Optimism’s positive outlook is partially fueled by Lisk’s collaboration with Optimism and <a href="https://crypto.news/gelatos-rollup-platform-extends-support-to-optimisms-op-stack-launching-lisk-layer-2-chain/">Gelato</a>, signaling a shift from Layer 1 to an Ethereum Layer 2 solution. In this transition, Lisk intends to migrate its LSK tokens onto the Ethereum platform.</p>

<p>Holding steady in the second spot is Oasis Network (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/oasis-network/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ROSE</a>), sitting at $0.1224, with a notable surge of 22.3% in the last 24 hours. Growth for the token is said to be a response to the introduction of the Universal Privacy Alliance (UPA), a coalition of web3 projects, including the Oasis Network, Protocol Labs, Filecoin Foundation, and Aztec Network led by Nym aimed to safeguard and advance digital privacy rights globally.</p>
