It’s easy to get caught up in how fast a network can go, but I’ve realized speed doesn't matter if the transaction doesn't settle instantly. We're seeing @Plasma shift its focus from just "high speed" to sub-second finality. By integrating with NEAR Intents, $XPL is moving away from being a playground for apps and toward becoming a serious settlement layer for USDT. It’s a lesson in reliability: #plasma is quietly becoming the essential rail for moving value without the wait.
