Plasma, a blockchain network focused on stablecoins, has confirmed that it will launch its mainnet beta and native token, XPL, on September 25, 2025. If successful, the rollout will position Plasma as the eighth-largest blockchain network by stablecoin liquidity.
The announcement was detailed in a recent blog post, revealing that the network will have $2 billion in stablecoins available at launch. Backed by Tether, the world’s largest stablecoin issuer, and Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund, Plasma has already secured influential partners as it prepares to enter the market.
Investment in DeFi and User Benefits
Plasma has also committed to investing in more than 100 DeFi partners, including major protocols such as Aave, Euler, Fluid, and Ethena. According to the team, the investment will enable:
Instant benefits for usersSavings that preserve valueDeep liquidity for USDT marketsIndustry-leading low borrowing rates, particularly for USDT
Users will also gain access to vault deposits and USDT withdrawals as soon as the mainnet beta goes live. Importantly, the launch signals the end of Plasma’s final test phase, allowing participants to benefit from zero-fee USDT transfers during the rollout.
PlasmaBFT and Cross-Border Integration
To support its vision, Plasma will introduce PlasmaBFT, a high-throughput consensus mechanism designed for efficient stablecoin transactions. This feature will ensure seamless, fee-free authorization-based USDT transfers.
The team also confirmed that while zero-fee transfers will initially be limited to Plasma’s products during the beta and testing phase, the plan is to gradually expand these benefits to other services.
Additionally, Plasma aims to integrate with peer-to-peer cash systems, extending the reach of digital dollars into real-world businesses. This strategy is designed to strengthen Plasma’s position as a leading blockchain for digital dollars.
XPL Token Launch and Distribution
Binance, the world’s top crypto exchange, has already introduced a pre-market perpetual contract for XPL, with early trading pushing the token to around $0.55.
At launch, Plasma will distribute:
25 million XPL tokens as rewards for users who completed Sonar verification and actively participated in the sale2.5 million XPL tokens for members of the Stablecoin Collective
Regarding regulatory compliance, Plasma clarified that U.S. investors will receive their tokens from July 28, 2026, in line with legal requirements. However, international investors from the public sale will gain access upon the mainnet beta launch.
Aiming for Leadership in Stablecoin Liquidity
With strong backing from Tether and Founders Fund, Plasma’s upcoming mainnet beta highlights its ambition to become a dominant force in stablecoin liquidity. The combination of zero-fee USDT transfers, deep DeFi integrations, and its new XPL token positions the network as a key contender in the rapidly evolving digital dollar ecosystem.
