Plasma's most unsettling aspect might be that it's making us accustomed to a "no-responsibility" financial life.

Think about it, in the past when transferring money, you had to consider gas fees, confirmation times, and even understand a bit about blockchain explorers. These "frictions" were annoying, but they subtly made you aware that you were operating within a vast and complex system, and you had to take some responsibility for the transaction. Now @Plasma has erased all of that, like magic: click, receive, no feeling. This is undoubtedly exhilarating, I rave about this experience.

But anxiety also creeps in: as financial actions become as simple and unconscious as breathing, will our risk nerves as users also fall asleep? We have bundled our rights to be informed about the transaction process and the supervision costs, along with some inconveniences, and handed them over to the protocol. It takes such good care of us that we might forget we were once capable of understanding maps and even digging wells. #Plasma

It feels like living in a fully automated hotel where everything is adjusted automatically, and you don’t even know where the switches are. Comfortable? Absolutely. But what if one day the system crashes? You might not even find a candle in the room. The more successful Plasma becomes, the more likely we are to collectively develop a "financial self-management degradation syndrome." The more perfect it becomes, the more we might lose. $XPL
