Optimism new proposal weakens council power over standalone chains

An Optimism governance proposal published Nov. 5 would require at least 30 days' public notice before a chain transfers upgrade control from the shared Security Council, giving users time to assess changes to the network's security model. The proposed Standard Rollup Charter amendment concerns chains whose upgrade authority rests with the Council under the Charter. It would let a Chain Governor request that control move to an address of its choosing, so it could manage upgrades itself or through a third party. A completed transfer would mean relying on the security model of the new upgrade key holder.
