Most blockchains were never really built with stablecoins in mind, and you can feel that every time fees spike or transactions slow down. Plasma Coin takes a completely different route. It’s a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain designed specifically for stablecoin payments, where sending value quickly and cheaply isn’t a bonus feature, it’s the main goal. Instead of trying to support every possible onchain idea at once, Plasma focuses on doing one thing extremely well: high-volume, low-cost payments that work reliably at scale. From my point of view, this kind of focus is exactly what stablecoins need to move beyond niche use and into everyday life. Plasma feels less like an experiment and more like infrastructure you can actually depend on, especially as stablecoins become a bigger part of how people move money globally.
