Plasma is engineered to operate as financial rails rather than a generic blockchain. Its modular design separates execution, settlement, and data availability, enabling the network to sustain low latency even during periods of heavy demand. This structure minimizes congestion, keeps transaction costs predictable, and ensures consistent performance as activity scales.
The system is built for fast finality and continuous uptime, qualities that are essential for exchanges, payment processors, and institutions managing large stablecoin flows. By focusing on infrastructure optimized for dollar-denominated assets, Plasma provides dependable, always-on settlement that reflects the standards of modern financial systems while preserving the transparency of on-chain technology.
