OP Enterprise Now Supports Soneium
TL;DR: OP Enterprise now supports Soneium's chain operations: deployment, the sequencer, monitoring and upgrades. Soneium's team keeps building, on the chain and on top of it, and OP's support helps it move faster on Onchain Entertainment, starting with Tokenized IP and the infrastructure behind it, from onchain royalty distribution to AI-native IP tools.
Soneium keeps building, and OP Enterprise helps it move faster.
Soneium was built to bring Tokenized IP and Onchain Entertainment to life, and its own engineering team keeps building both the chain and the products on it. As Soneium moves into its next phase, OP Enterprise adds the Optimism Foundation and OP Labs' operations support behind the chain: uptime, monitoring, incident response and implementing approved upgrades. That lets the team spend more of its time on what comes next.
“We keep shaping Soneium's technology ourselves. OP Enterprise's support on chain operations helps us move faster on Onchain Entertainment, starting with Tokenized IP.”
What this means for Tokenized IP
Soneium is focused on Tokenized IP and the infrastructure it needs, from onchain royalty distribution to AI-native tools for IP. OP Enterprise's support on chain operations means Soneium's team can put more of its time into that work, alongside its ongoing work on the chain.
What the deal is
Soneium is adopting OP Enterprise's fully managed tier. The Optimism Foundation and OP Labs will support Soneium's chain operations, including deployment, upgrades, the sequencer, node infrastructure, monitoring and incident response. Soneium's engineering team works closely with the Optimism Foundation and OP Labs on the chain and owns its roadmap.
“Soneium is building Tokenized IP on the OP Stack, and OP Enterprise is there to help them move faster. We keep the chain's operations running smoothly so their team can keep shipping.”
It's the same principle behind every OP Enterprise deployment: dependable operations underneath, so the team on top can build faster. For Soneium, that means faster progress on the Tokenized IP and entertainment products its users interact with.
Why Optimism
The Optimism Foundation and OP Labs aren't new to this. Jing Wang, Karl Floersch and Ben Jones have worked on Ethereum infrastructure and scaling since Ethereum's early days, including at the Ethereum Foundation. Sub-blocks, one of the most recent additions to the OP Stack, is a live example of the kind of infrastructure work OP Labs does continuously, not a one-time deployment exercise.
It also shows up at scale. More than 50 production chains have been deployed on the OP Stack, and those chains processed 6 billion transactions in 2025. Soneium was already one of them, and its team continues to build on it alongside the Optimism Foundation and OP Labs.
How it works
Under OP Enterprise's fully managed model, the Optimism Foundation and OP Labs support the operational side of running a chain: deployment, sequencer operations, upgrades and day-to-day monitoring. It's backed by a service-level agreement with a 99.9% monthly uptime target and 24/7 on-call incident response. Soneium keeps ownership of its chain, control of its roadmap, and its own engineering involvement.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is OP Enterprise's fully managed tier?
It's the OP Enterprise operating model where the Optimism Foundation and OP Labs deploy, operate and upgrade a partner's chain, backed by a service-level agreement, with the partner's own team staying as involved in the chain as it chooses.
Is Soneium a new OP Stack chain?
No. Soneium already runs on the OP Stack. OP Enterprise adds support on chain operations, and Soneium's team stays involved in the chain and its roadmap.
Does this deal include interoperability or cross-chain features?
No. This announcement is about OP Enterprise's fully managed tier only.
