Plasma expansion solutions have been increasingly adopted by projects over the past two years, and XPL as a native token of this kind of ecosystem indeed has some interesting points in solving the two major challenges of high performance and low cost.

In simple terms, it is through the Plasma technology framework that the speed of on-chain transactions skyrockets and transaction fees are driven down to extremely low levels. For users, this means faster transaction confirmation and lower costs, which naturally boosts ecosystem activity.

From a token design perspective, XPL's token economic model revolves around several key points—encouraging network node participation, strengthening security measures, and serving as a universal medium for value exchange and governance voting within the ecosystem. In other words, it is not a purely speculative token, but one supported by clear practical use cases. Under this design logic, the token itself has inherent appreciation potential because the growth of the ecosystem directly impacts the demand for the token.
