Today Bithumb's "44 billion USD airdrop" blunder simply left me dumbfounded! Although 99.7% was recovered, that moment's 17% drop directly tested the bottom of the liquidity across the entire network. Did everyone notice? When panic strikes, all the balances on the books are just virtual; the real skill is being able to withdraw to a safe zone in 'seconds'.
This is why I've been keeping an eye on $XPL (Plasma). When traditional public chains are caught up in bank runs and soaring Gas fees, Plasma's 0 Gas mechanism and the settlement engine linked with NEAR Intents are simply a "digital escape route".
It has doubled the settlement efficiency of USDT0, meaning that no matter how chaotic the environment gets, your asset circulation efficiency is always a step ahead. Last September, when it was mocked for its 'low score', I mentioned that the project's focus on bottom-level liquidation is precisely to cope with these 'extreme black swan' moments. Don't wait until the next exchange has another blunder to regret not withdrawing; those who understand Plasma have already been waiting for you at the finish line.
