Recently, I came across a very interesting technological approach—a Layer 1 public chain optimized specifically for stablecoins. What is the core appeal of such projects? First, they solve the transfer cost issues of stablecoins like USDT, enabling zero-fee instant settlement; second, they inherit the security model at the Bitcoin level while being compatible with the EVM ecosystem, reducing developer migration costs.

From an application perspective, scenarios such as global cross-border payments and B2B settlements indeed require such infrastructure. The demand for stablecoins has been steadily growing over the past few years, and the conflict between performance and cost has always been a challenge in the entire sector. If this type of Layer 1 can ensure the stability of the mainnet and the ecosystem applications are gradually launched, the value support for network tokens will become increasingly clear.

The long-term potential of this sector is still worth paying attention to, especially in the context of increasingly fierce competition in digital dollar infrastructure.

Zero fees sound nice, but isn't it just another PPT public chain... Let's wait until the mainnet is truly stable.

Zero fees sound great, but stability is the real test. The stablecoin track has indeed heated up in the past two years, but the problem is that too many projects just talk without action, and various issues start as soon as the mainnet goes live. Bitcoin-level security + EVM compatibility? Sounds good, but what about in practice? Cross-border payments do have demand, but with so many competitors, why choose them? If the mainnet stability isn't good, even the best ideas are just fantasies. Token value support? First, see if they can survive the bear market.

Zero fees? That sounds a bit too ideal. Can the mainnet really stay stable? --- Cross-border payments have a real demand, but EVM compatibility ≠ the ecosystem will really migrate... --- Stablecoin Layer 1, this track needs real transaction volume to support its rise, otherwise it's just hype. --- Bitcoin-level security + zero fees, if achieved, would indeed be a fundamental infrastructure need. --- It mainly depends on who can get applications off the ground first. Purely impressive technical specs are useless. --- From the perspective of fierce competition in digital dollars, but these projects are still too early... --- Network token value support? It still depends on TPS and whether real settlement volume can increase. --- Another "perfect" narrative about public chains, but ultimately it depends on adoption. --- The key is whether the demand for stablecoins will actually be used; no matter how good the protocol is, someone has to use it. --- How to maintain security with zero fees? It's an unavoidable trade-off.
