The essence of the crypto world is a competition of information gaps, capital differences, and speed. Ordinary people cannot compete with big players in terms of capital and information, and cannot compete with scientists in terms of speed, so they will always suffer losses.
So how should we ordinary people seize the few certain opportunities in the crypto world? The core point is simple: look at the trend!
Recently, a signal has been quite obvious—
Even the Trump family has started to issue their own stablecoin USD1, and the founder of Binance also expressed his optimism about the payment sector at the Davos Forum.
This matter itself is worth pondering more than any candlestick chart.
You may not believe in crypto projects, but it's hard to ignore the capital choices in the real world.

- I expect the price to challenge the 0.1290 resistance. If it fails here with strong bearish candlestick signals, price is likely to pull back first toward 0.1270, and if selling continues, toward 0.1234.
- If bulls manage to break and hold above 0.1290, especially with confirmation from bullish candles and retest, I expect a rally to 0.1312 and potentially to 0.1363 if momentum continues.
- A sample trade setup: If you see a strong bullish candle close above 0.1290, wait for a retest of 0.1290 as support with a bullish reversal signal (like a small pin bar or engulfing candle). Enter long, target 0.1312 first and then 0.1363 if buyers remain strong. Place your stop-loss at a recent swing low below the breakout point.
- Alternatively, if you see a clear rejection at 0.1290 with a large upper wick or bearish engulfing candle, you could enter short, targeting 0.1270 and 0.1234, with your stop-loss above the recent swing high.

In the public chain track of 2026, if the competition of Layer 2 has entered the 'deep water zone', then the Plasma network, centered on stablecoin payments, is undoubtedly the dark horse worth paying attention to this year.

1. From technological revival to 'zero-fee' revolution

Once upon a time, Plasma was considered a pioneer in Ethereum's scalability, but it fell silent for a while due to data availability issues. However, the rise of $XPL (Plasma Network) has proven the charm of technological evolution to the market. At the beginning of 2026, with the implementation of its original Paymaster protocol-level mechanism, Plasma truly achieved 'zero-fee' transfers of USDT/USDC.

I think many people discussing XPL actually started off on the wrong track.
Everyone is focused on whether the coin price has risen or not, but very few think -
If stablecoins really are the future, what is needed to support them?

The asset that is truly being widely used on-chain every day is actually just one: USDT.
Not for speculation, but for transfers, settlements, and cross-border transactions.
The problem happens to lie here.
Stablecoins are available, but the channels are too poor.
Ethereum is expensive, and general public chains are not designed for high-frequency payments.
It is awkward to let a chain that 'wants to do everything' handle 'thousands of transactions every day.'

In the public chain melee of 2026, most L1s are still competing for the limits of TPS, while Plasma ($XPL ) has chosen the most difficult yet also the most 'down-to-earth' path: completely solving the last mile of stablecoin payments.

1️⃣ Core pain point: Why do we need a dedicated L1 for payments?

Currently, when transferring USDT on Ethereum or Tron, users must hold native tokens (ETH or TRX) as Gas. This logic of 'having to buy another currency to pay' is the biggest barrier preventing 1 billion Web2 users from entering the space.

Plasma's solution: Paymaster mechanism (payer abstraction).

Three Major 'Technological Tools' of the Plasma Chain
The reason this 'highway' is receiving so much attention is that it is equipped with several key technologies that solve industry pain points:
*Zero-fee USDT Transfers**: Users can send USDT stablecoins without paying any fees. This is achieved through a protocol-level gas fee sponsorship mechanism, lowering the barrier to entry for the public.
*Security of Bitcoin Bridging**: It introduces the security of Bitcoin into the ecosystem through a trust-minimized bridge and uses the Bitfrost network to anchor critical data, thus building a highly secure foundation.

Today's low fees in Ethereum are a significant victory for users, but this is just the beginning of a major transformation. The main question of 2026 is no longer how to pay less for gas, but which network will provide the greatest security and speed for large capital.
📌 Technical section @Plasma

I think when discussing XPL whales, we need to set aside emotions and look at the on-chain behavior itself. Prices can be deceptive, but the movement of funds rarely lies.
During this time, I repeatedly looked at the on-chain data of XPL, and there are several interesting points.
First, the behavior of large addresses clearly does not resemble short-term funds.
Many whale addresses, after the mainnet launch, did not choose to cash out entirely but instead kept USDT on the Plasma chain for the long term. You should know that if this kind of fund were just for cryptocurrency speculation, there would be no need to cross-chain; keeping it in CEX contracts is more efficient. Willingness to keep money on-chain itself indicates one thing—they are 'using' it, not just betting on prices.
