Plasma is built for "stablecoin settlement": it optimizes "sub second finality" with PlasmaBFT and keeps "EVM" familiarity via Reth. Trade off — it gets opinionated on fees, enabling "gasless USDT" and "stablecoin first gas" via relayers and paymasters, so users feel the " — " moment of finality. It anchors to "Bitcoin": slower base, stronger neutrality. Fast enough? That focus beats generic today
