Plasma's Pre-Launch Vault raised $500M in minutes. Why has a "Tether chain" garnered so much demand? Because current infrastructure isn't built for payments. @PlasmaFDN is building the blockchain for digital dollars. 🧵
The Full Plasma report covers much more including its architecture, ecosystem, and the rise of stablecoins.
1/ Stablecoins facilitate massive volume but transactions run on infrastructure designed for smart contracts, not payments. A true settlement network needs predictable fees, instant finality, and dedicated throughput. This is what Plasma aims to solve.
2/ Plasma is the first blockchain built for stablecoins, aiming to offer: • Zero-fee USDT transfers to make payments economically viable • Dedicated infrastructure to ensure predictable performance • Specialized design for payment flows instead of general computation
3/ How would Zero Fee Transfers work? Plasma's split-block architecture separates each block into two layers: one for fee-paying smart contracts, another exclusively for USDT transfers that bypass gas entirely. Both layers validate together but execute separately, so payments don't compete with other DeFi apps for blockspace. Note: This feature is still under active research and has not yet been implemented.
