#Plasma @Plasma $XPL
When the Plasma network goes live, everyday interaction patterns shift in specific, traceable ways rooted in its design choices. Plasma runs as a Layer-1 blockchain centered on stablecoin payments, where basic USD₮ transfers settle almost instantly with no fees and without requiring users to hold a native token for gas. This default structure reduces simple frictions: people sending small amounts don’t pause to convert or accumulate another token before paying. Plasma’s paymaster logic and custom gas token support quietly push builders to assume users transact in stable assets rather than native tokens, shaping how wallets and apps are coded. The system also embeds high throughput and predictable costs, so businesses integrating payments avoid sudden fee spikes and design flows around reliable processing. Over time these defaults draw in users and developers focused on routine remittances, day-to-day retail payments, and stablecoin-first consumer finance rather than speculative trading.
