I’ve noticed something subtle over time: when liquidity stops rushing between chains and starts settling quietly inside routing layers, infrastructure is usually getting better. Lately, stablecoin flows feel less scattered. Watching @Plasma , that calmer pattern seems less about trading and more about settlement efficiency, which often signals deeper ecosystem stability before it becomes obvious.

An early-2026 update about improved cross-chain routing tools caught my attention because it reduces repeated bridging steps. That small technical shift can change behavior — fewer hops often mean liquidity providers leave funds active longer instead of pulling them out quickly. Conversation around #plasma has slowly tilted toward usability rather than visibility. If routing keeps smoothing out, could liquidity retention across chains become the signal worth tracking?
