Plasma is a Layer 1 blockchain designed with one clear idea stablecoins are already real money so the infrastructure should treat them that way.
I’m not seeing Plasma as another general purpose chain.
They’re building specifically for moving digital dollars fast cheaply and safely.
Most blockchains add stablecoins on top of systems made for many other things.
Plasma does the opposite.
Stablecoins sit at the center of the design.
The network uses fast finality so transactions feel instant and predictable which matters for payments.
Basic USDT transfers can be gasless so users don’t need to hold extra tokens just to send money.
Plasma is compatible with Ethereum tools so developers don’t start from zero.
At the same time they anchor their history to Bitcoin which adds long term security and neutrality.
I’m seeing this as infrastructure for real usage like remittances settlements and payments rather than speculation.
They’re focused on making stablecoins behave more like real cash on the internet.
