#plasma $XPL @Plasma

The fee mechanism and the role of XPL

In the Plasma architecture, the XPL token plays a central role:

Paying transaction fees

Staking to secure the network

Encouraging validators to operate stably

Unlike some blockchains where tokens are merely speculative, the Plasma architecture forces XPL to be directly tied to the network's operations. However, this also means:

If the network is underused → demand for XPL is low

The token's value strongly depends on actual adoption.
