@Plasma in the Stablecoin Chain Race: Why Capital Moves Early.
Plasma enters the stablecoin L1 race with a clear, practical focus: real usage. Built in 2024, Plasma is designed specifically for stablecoins, optimizing directly for USDT transfers and payment flows rather than abstract narratives.
What attracts capital early is simple—experience. Transfers are near-instant, fees are extremely low, and users don’t need to worry about holding a separate gas token just to move stablecoins. That removes friction at the most basic level of on-chain payments.
The real edge lies in Plasma being a stablecoin-native chain. Its flexible fee design is built around stable assets, while full EVM compatibility allows DeFi protocols to deploy quickly without rewriting infrastructure.
When the mainnet beta launched in September 2025, Plasma positioned itself not as hype, but as payment and liquidity rails. Capital flowed in early because it had immediate utility—something to use, not just something to speculate on.
In a crowded L1 landscape, usability is what pulls liquidity first. Plasma understood that from day one.
