The Optimism token list is used as the source of truth for the Optimism Gateway which is the main portal for moving assets between Layer 1 and Layer 2.
Note: The standard bridge does not support certain ERC-20 configurations:
Note that if your token was grandfathered in before the validation was added, your token may fail validation when you edit it. If this is the case you need to add additional fields that were since added such as website field.
Our CI performs a series of automated checks on every PR. Some issues raised by CI will trigger an error and must be resolved before your PR will be reviewed. These issues are marked below as “auto-reject” issues. Other issues will not immediately cause an error, but will require that a reviewer manually review your PR before it can be merged. These issues are marked below as “requires manual review”.
name, symbol, and decimals matches on-chain data (auto-reject)
overrides are used (requires manual review)All PRs are subject to a light-weight final approval, even if not marked as requires manual review.
Create a folder inside of the data folder with the same name as the symbol of the token you are trying to add. For example, if you are adding a token with the symbol “ETH” you must create a folder called ETH.
Add a logo to the data folder you just created. Your logo MUST be an SVG called logo.svg. Your logo should be at least 200x200 pt minimum and 256x256 pt preferred.
Add a file to your folder called data.json with the following format:
{
"name": "Token Name",
"symbol": "SYMBOL",
"decimals": 18,
"description": "A multi-chain token",
"website": "https://token.com",

Open a pull request with the changes that you’ve made. Please only add one token per pull request to simplify the review process. This means two new files inside of one new folder. If you want to add multiple tokens, please open different PRs for each token.
Your pull request will be validated by a series of automated checks. If one of these checks fails, please resolve these issues and make sure that validation succeeds. We will review your pull request for final approval once automated validation succeeds.
Once your PR is merged, the token list will update automatically to include your token. Please do NOT update the token list directly. All token list updates will be handled automatically when PRs are merged into the master branch.
