Speaking of stablecoin payments, it's now a highly competitive field. Exchange fees are exorbitant, security risks are emerging constantly, and cross-chain compatibility remains a major challenge—who will address these pain points?

The Plasma public chain behind the XPL token aims to be the answer. As a Layer1 infrastructure specifically designed for stablecoins, its positioning is very clear: to deeply focus on the payment track.

This project is not an unknown player. Leading institutions like Founders Fund and Tether have jointly invested $400 million, which is no small amount. What does the support from these major players mean? It indicates that they are optimistic about Plasma's potential in the stablecoin ecosystem.

As the native token of the public chain, XPL carries the value flow of the entire ecosystem. Its uses range from fee optimization to security assurance and multi-chain compatibility. It’s not just a single purpose. This is what I pay attention to—it's not hype, but real application scenarios backing it up.

To be honest, Tether and Founders Fund together invested 400 million, which really doesn't seem like the usual pump-and-dump scheme. Stablecoin payments have indeed been tortured quite a bit, and the XPL idea is still somewhat fresh. The Plasma public chain focuses solely on the payment track; it's vertical, so it depends on whether it can truly reduce transaction fees. Compared to those meme coins that pop up all the time, at least this one has backing from major institutions, so the risk is indeed lower. However, multi-chain compatibility isn't just talk; it has to be truly usable.

The stablecoin payment space is indeed crowded, but the projects that Tether and Founders Fund are both backing... this signal can't be fake, right?

It sounds like another story of "we need to revolutionize payments," but with $400 million poured in, Tether and its crew won't act recklessly. Founders Fund is also involved... maybe this time there's really something to it. If the transaction fees can truly be optimized, I would be convinced. Cross-chain compatibility is claimed by every project; it all depends on who can turn their words into reality. Use case scenarios are crucial; let's avoid another pump-and-dump scheme that just cuts the leeks. The design of the XPL token doesn't seem so casual; it's worth keeping an eye on. The stablecoin race is indeed intense, but focusing vertically might be a good approach. But how to ensure security risks? That's the key point. Still, let's wait and see how things actually land before making judgments. Just looking at the funding amount and investors makes me a bit tempted, but I also need to stay cautious.

Stablecoin payments are indeed a crowded track, but Tether and Founders Fund investing 400 million in Plasma sends a signal worth pondering. To be honest, there are still very few public chains that truly achieve low fees and multi-chain compatibility. If XPL can crack this, it would be quite an achievement. However, while claiming to support application scenarios, how to actually implement and realize them is the key. Will anyone really switch ecosystems just to save on transaction fees? That's the question.

There are indeed many pitfalls in stablecoin payments, but Tether and Founders Fund simultaneously investing 400 million, what does this indicate... there's real potential
