Plasma: The First Stablecoin-First Blockchain
@Plasma isn’t just another Layer 1 — it’s purpose-built for one thing: stablecoin utility. While most blockchains aim to do everything, Plasma focuses on the most used and practical asset in crypto: stablecoins. Every design choice—from consensus to UX—is optimized for speed, privacy, and zero-fee USDT transfers.
Its standout feature: no gas token required. Users can send USDT and pay fees in USDT or BTC, eliminating the biggest friction in crypto adoption. For people in high-inflation regions, merchants, and remittance users, that means instant, costless payments without managing extra tokens.
Powered by PlasmaBFT, a high-speed HotStuff variant, transactions confirm in seconds. Built-in confidential payments add selective privacy for businesses and individuals — practical, fast, and compliance-friendly.
Plasma’s trust-minimized Bitcoin bridge connects BTC liquidity directly to its ecosystem, while EVM compatibility keeps building simple and familiar for developers. No congestion, no unpredictable gas, just stablecoin-focused performance.
For users, it feels like a payment app, not a blockchain. For builders, it’s infrastructure that makes stablecoin products easy to deploy. And for institutions, it’s predictable, private, and ready for compliance.
Plasma isn’t chasing hype — it’s solving real problems. It’s not a general-purpose chain that supports stablecoins; it’s a blockchain built for them.
That’s what makes Plasma the world’s first true stablecoin-first Layer 1.
