#plasma $XPL just transferred some money to a friend using the Plasma network.
After hitting send, I switched out to reply to a WeChat message, and when I switched back, it had already arrived. I looked at the fees deducted, and it was hardly noticeable.
Thinking back to last week when I was hit by gas fees on some 'noble chain', it suddenly feels quite ironic. We keep shouting about the Web3 revolution, yet we can't even get the most basic transfer experience right. Fortunately, there are practical things like Plasma. Its sidechain mechanism moves all those messy computations off-chain, making it feel like a product for people.
$XPL such useful things, I hope more people can discover them.
