Supported Chains
Protocol Footprint
Catalyst operates on 4 networks (Base, Blast, Optimism, Arbitrum), keeping its surface area narrower than chain-agnostic peers. Roughly 100% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Base, Blast, Optimism), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users.
