The day before yesterday, I just figured out the essence of GaslessUSDT—basically, it's just a different payment method. Today, I'll continue to analyze Plasma's tactics and see what tricks their so-called Layer1, built specifically for stablecoin settlement, is really playing.

Honestly, now there are Layer1 solutions everywhere that can be used for stablecoin trading. Why insist on creating an entirely new independent chain? That’s a good question.

Imagine, a普通Layer1 is like a public highway where all kinds of vehicles are allowed, and everyone can squeeze on. You just want to pay a bill with stablecoins or buy a bowl of noodles, but on this road, it's all about抢NFTs,炒迷因币, and刷交易比赛, with lines of queues. By the time your transaction finally confirms, lunch hour is almost over. This is deadly for payment scenarios—transactions must be settled instantly, even a fraction of a second delay means the convenience store checkout line gets long, and users will abandon this payment method altogether.

That’s why Plasma is building this dedicated fast lane.

They are laying the foundation with an EVM-compatible Reth architecture, paired with PlasmaBFT consensus mechanism, aiming for sub-second finality—that’s what’s needed for stablecoin settlement. Rather than Plasma trying to compete on every track, they are betting on a niche market: perfecting stablecoin settlement to attract as many users as possible to choose their solution.

Can this specialized strategy succeed? It depends on market response.
