Why Plasma’s take on privacy actually makes sense 🧵👇

For years, blockchains pushed one idea: everything should be public.

Every transaction. Every amount. Forever.

Sounds fair.

But in real life? It gets awkward fast.

Businesses don’t want competitors tracking their cash flow.

Employees don’t want salaries visible to strangers.

Companies don’t want their financial plans exposed years later.

This is where Plasma thinks differently.

Plasma doesn’t hide activity.

It hides sensitive details.

When you send a payment, the amount is encrypted.

Think of it like a sealed envelope 📩

Everyone can see it moved, but only the sender and receiver know what’s inside.

Behind the scenes, the network still checks everything.

Balances are real.

The math works.

No funny business.

That’s the key: trust without oversharing.

Privacy alone isn’t enough in finance, though.

Audits and compliance still matter.

Plasma solves this with viewing keys.

You can share transaction details with auditors or regulators

without giving them control over your funds.

Access can be limited.

Access can be removed.

You share only what’s needed. Nothing more.

Even with private balances, the big picture stays transparent.

Total supply is still visible and verifiable.

From the user side, it’s simple.

You send money like normal.

Your wallet handles the complexity quietly.

You see your amount.

The public doesn’t.

That’s why Plasma stands out.

Privacy and compliance don’t have to fight each other.

You can protect real people and real businesses while keeping the system honest. @Plasma
