The new public chain Plasma has recently become a market focus. In just one week since its launch, its total locked value has surged to $5.5 billion, a figure that makes many established projects look pale in comparison. The supporting forces behind it are also quite impressive—jointly driven by Tether and Bitfinex.
The core positioning of this chain is very clear: it is tailored for the stablecoin ecosystem. USDT transactions on its platform feature zero Gas fees, directly addressing users' pain points. Imagine this: when transferring stablecoins, one side has to bear high fees and network congestion, while the other offers completely free transfers with instant confirmation. Which option would users prefer?
This move, to some extent, reshapes the user experience of stablecoins. Some of the existing mature public chains in this sector have had their advantages leveled out. The combination of technological innovation and capital synergy often stirs significant ripples in the market. For the entire stablecoin ecosystem, this represents a genuine upgrade in competition, and it is worth closely monitoring the upcoming developments.

Zero Gas fee sounds great, but how long can it really last?
Wait, Tether is creating its own chain, and the USDT migration game is getting pretty intense.
55 billion in a week? Oh my, this is the power of capital.
The question is, how many are real users, and what proportion are arbitrageurs?
We'll see if Plasma catches on or not; anyway, stablecoins are never outdated.

Zero gas fee transfers sound great, but can this really be reliable in practice, or is it just another capital gamble?

Zero gas fees are a bit excessive; it feels like another capital game.

The zero gas fee thing is really amazing; I was directly sold out.

Zero gas fees? Sounds a bit suspicious. What are the details? Could it just be a way to scam elsewhere?
