Stablecoins are transforming the landscape of digital payments, but currently many public blockchains still face significant limitations in this area. Payment scenarios demand much higher speed, lower costs, and greater security than DeFi or NFTs. Once confirmation times slow down or fees double, user experience drops sharply.



To address this pain point, a Layer 1 blockchain specifically designed for stablecoin settlement has emerged. Its core idea is straightforward: optimize deeply around stablecoins to make on-chain payments truly fast, cheap, and secure.

How is this achieved at the technical level? First, it adopts an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible solution, meaning developers can deploy using familiar tools and existing smart contracts without migration costs. Existing decentralized applications can easily integrate into the stablecoin settlement ecosystem without starting from scratch.

The consensus mechanism used is PlasmaBFT, which provides sub-second finality. How important is this for payments? Imagine the recipient no longer has to wait 3 seconds to confirm that the transaction has arrived, but it happens instantly. This experience difference is magnified in high-frequency payment scenarios.

Another particularly clever design is the stablecoin-prioritized fuel mechanism. On-chain transfers of stablecoins like USDT can be fee-free, with stablecoins defaulting as the payment fuel. This means ordinary users don’t need to hoard native tokens; they can interact smoothly using stablecoins directly. This is highly attractive to mainstream users.

In terms of security, the project introduces Bitcoin anchoring for security guarantees, enhancing resistance to censorship and ensuring neutrality. Both retail users and institutional funds can settle assets in a highly trusted environment. This is a key signal for traditional institutions looking to enter on-chain finance.

Therefore, the user profile for this project is quite interesting—targeting both retail markets sensitive to low costs and high speed, as well as payment institutions and financial companies with strict compliance and security requirements. In this dual-track ecosystem, the value of the ecosystem token is not just about on-chain fuel but reflects the long-term potential of the stablecoin settlement track.

ngl the whole "zero migration cost" thing is what got me... actually tried this on the last three chains that promised the same thing. spoiler alert: there's always some protocol quirk that bites you in the ass. but yeah, subsecond finality for stablecoin payments does hit different

Gas-free transfer of stablecoins is truly awesome; finally, someone is seriously working on payments. The ones that claimed to be the king of ten thousand chains before were actually just stacking computing power and had no clue about payment scenarios.

Another so-called "revolutionary" Layer 1, full of hype but in the end, it's still the retail investors who get stuck holding the bag.

Sub-second finality sounds great, but how many can actually achieve this speed in practice? The key is whether users can truly start using it.

Sub-second confirmation is indeed impressive, but I have some doubts about the fuel-free fee design... Who will foot the bill for the stablecoin ecosystem?

Another project team focused on "deep optimization around stablecoins"... I've heard this pitch at least five times. Stablecoins without gas fees? Sure, but I just want to ask—how is the token unlock schedule arranged, and is the risk reserve genuine? When finally selling to retail investors, remember to tweak the copy—don't just use empty phrases like "long-term potential."
