Most blockchains treat stablecoins as an afterthought. @PlasmaFDN is changing that with a Bitcoin-secured L1 where USD₵0 transfers cost zero. Let’s break down how it works and why it might reshape stablecoin infrastructure. https://t.co/RThkmqa21d

Plasma is optimized for scale: zero-fee USD₵0 transfers, delay-based settlement, custom gas tokens like USD₵0 and BTC, and optional transaction privacy. All designed for global stablecoin use.

USD₵0 is at the center of it. As the world’s leading stablecoin, it holds over 70 percent of the market and more than 140 billion in supply. Plasma offers it on its own chain, optimized for fast and cheap movement.

Why is that important? Stablecoins are crypto’s most widely used tool. In 2024, there were 225 billion dollars in supply and 32.8 trillion in volume - more than Visa. But they still compete for blockspace and pay high fees. Plasma aims to solve this.

As a Bitcoin sidechain, Plasma anchors to Bitcoin for finality. It uses PlasmaBFT, a fast protocol based on HotStuff that handles thousands of transactions per second. With built-in EVM support, gas fees are optional.

Plasma is a new Layer 1 built specifically for stablecoins. It treats stablecoins as first-class citizens at the base layer with native support, optimizations, and fee-free USD₵0 transfers. It anchors to Bitcoin for security, supports EVM, and handles high throughput.

Exciting development! Plasma Foundation's Bitcoin-secured L1 for USD₵0 transfers could indeed revolutionize stablecoin efficiency and adoption. Looking forward to seeing how this impacts the broader blockchain ecosystem.
