As the Ethereum Layer 2 track is dominated by Rollup solutions, many view @Plasma as 'last generation technology.' But the reality is quite the opposite—the Plasma framework is returning in a newly evolved form, while $XPL is building its core infrastructure layer.
Genuine expansion should not sacrifice security. Classic Plasma inherits the security assurances of the mainnet mathematically by moving data and computation off-chain while regularly submitting the root hash of assets to the mainnet. Today, the new generation of Plasma chains (such as Optimistic Plasma and ZK-Plasma hybrid models) goes a step further: they not only handle transactions but also become high-performance execution layers for specific applications through modular design, particularly suitable for GameFi and high-throughput DeFi protocols.
XPL is the core token of this ecosystem, with a clear value capture: staking to run verification nodes, paying on-chain transaction fees, and voting on governance proposals. As more application chains choose to build on the Plasma framework, the demand for XPL will be directly linked to the prosperity of the ecosystem.
The industry is currently shifting from 'general Rollups' to 'dedicated application chains'. The independence, low cost, and customization provided by Plasma make it an ideal canvas for developers. Focusing on the #plasma ecosystem is not just about a technology; it is also about betting on a more modular and efficient blockchain future. The value narrative of $XPL is being rewritten at this moment.#Plasma
