Plasma Network operates based on a tree model, where a parent blockchain connects to multiple different child chains. Each child chain can process transactions independently, helping the entire system achieve higher performance without congesting the mainnet.
This structure is particularly suitable for applications that require speed and scalability while maintaining the necessary level of decentralization. @Plasma is building Plasma Network in a flexible direction, allowing for expansion without affecting core security.
In the long term, Plasma Network could become an important infrastructure layer for many Web3 applications. As the ecosystem expands, the role of $XPL
in the operation and connection of the network is becoming increasingly clear. #plasma
