Today I participated in the opinion booster event, which directly led to my alpha account being banned. This event can't be done without a VPN; I had previously used Singapore's region, but this time I switched to Japan, which triggered risk control. I'm really frustrated 🙄.
I didn't have many points to begin with, and since this event only deducted 5 points, I decided to participate. I didn't expect that I wouldn't even get to eat the big毛, and my account got banned. Then, because I didn't understand the opinion process before, I lost a few U as well. Today has truly been an unfortunate day. I have already appealed to the official team, and if the appeal is successful, I will let everyone know. This shouldn't have too much impact, right? I still brushed alpha as usual today. If the ban lasts long, I might not brush alpha during this time, as the market isn't good and it's easy to get caught.
The rewards for this month's challenge feel pretty average, I only got 20 HEADAL at 8 o'clock today, previously it was 4 HEADAL. I checked and those 4 coins are only worth about 0.1, which doesn’t even cover my transaction fees.
I was also trading XPL, and the transaction fee for a volume of 1000 is higher than 0.1 when deducted with BNB. Haha, this time the lottery rewards feel a bit low 😂.
It would be great if I could draw 1000 coins, last time for XPL I managed to get 1000 or 2000, I hope I can get something big this time too.
@Plasma is really generous from the project team, not only are the event rewards plentiful, but the airdrops are also very active, making transfers and payments very convenient, really nice 😀.
It's strange that there are no airdrops today. Is there really not even a surprise airdrop for old coins? Haha😂. Today I intended to buy some U through C2C, but I found that the price of U was actually higher than the exchange rate for USD. I thought I would buy some USD instead and then transfer it to Binance via bank swift. I want to try transferring 100 USD to the designated account on Binance through my Hong Kong card (like Tianxing). Transferring through bank swift can waive the handling fee, but transferring through bank cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay incurs fees.
However, when I looked, the handling fee for Tianxing swift remittance was indeed not low. They actually charged me 6 USD for a 100 USD transfer. This is quite a significant amount for small transfers.
Binance's monthly challenge is back 😀! Just search for 'monthly challenge' in the search box.
The previous monthly challenges were very enjoyable, and trading volume reaching 500 every day would give you a chance to win a lottery. The lottery starts at 8 AM every day, which can increase your chances of winning. The only pity was that the previous RWUSD could be directly arbitraged, allowing for risk-free trading and additional lottery opportunities.
The current reward is HAEDAL. I still remember that the most comfortable one was the XPL last time; I earned quite a bit of XPL that month. The Plasma team is very generous, offering many airdrop rewards before, and they have also hosted many activities for everyone to participate in. The Plasma team is really great 😘.
@Plasma is a really good project, not only does it have significant actual value, but the airdrop rewards are abundant, and the community building is also quite good. Plasma is continuously expanding its network, allowing everyone to enjoy its services better, including transfers, wealth management, etc. Its low fees, fast speed, and wide applicability are its biggest advantages. The future of Plasma is promising 😉.
Today's airdrop is WARD, requiring 231 points, with an airdrop quantity of 50,000 units, and the airdrop time is 20:00, with a pre-market value of about 30U.
This project is related to AI agency agreements and has a decent concept. The project is based in France, which is also acceptable; we can observe it for now.
Today's score brushing recommendations are OWL and WMTX, with a priority on WMTX; be careful not to get caught.
So that's how it is! The Plasma creator rewards have been confirmed by customer service to be distributed in two batches. The first batch of rewards will be distributed 14 working days after the end of the first cycle, which I looked at and it seems to be around February 18. The second batch of rewards will be distributed 14 working days after the end of the event.
They will still be distributed in two batches, but the time span is a bit long 😂. I didn't understand the article posted in the square before; I had to confirm it with customer service. This rule changing back and forth is indeed not very good.
@Plasma is not an ordinary public chain; it only does one thing — makes global USD transfers as simple, instant, and free as sending a message.
Why is it special?
1️⃣ USDT transfers are completely zero Gas: the protocol automatically pays for you, regardless of the amount 2️⃣ Extremely fast: thousands of TPS + sub-second confirmations, almost no delay in arrival 3️⃣ Perfectly compatible with Ethereum: existing DApps and contracts can be migrated seamlessly 4️⃣ Gas can be paid freely: you can pay fees directly with assets like USDT, BTC, etc. 5️⃣ Privacy optional: supports confidential transactions while meeting compliance requirements 6️⃣ Extremely strong liquidity: has absorbed over 7 billion in stablecoin deposits, with 25+ types of stablecoins in circulation
Focus on payments, do not divert energy, go deep and thorough. Backed by top institutions like Tether and Framework, the speed of implementation far exceeds peers.
Want to experience true "global instant USD"? Plasma is worth paying attention to 👍.
Today's airdrop is TRIA, requiring 232 points, with a total of 30,000 airdrops, starting at 16:00.
The founder of the TIRA project is Indian, which is something to keep in mind; both Chinese and Indians should be cautious 😂. This project is related to bank U cards and has some actual value.
It may also be listed on other exchanges for spot trading, and the neighboring boost will also have an airdrop. It's okay, but the selling pressure is a bit high, so be careful.
There’s another airdrop on the 2nd, I thought the officials forgot 😂. It’s fine if they don’t release anything over the weekend, but at least they should release a little something during the week to acknowledge us. They can't just leave us, who are constantly refreshing for alpha, waiting. Besides contracts, Binance is just us, this group refreshing for alpha, right? Oh, and some trading competition participants.
Today's airdrop project is ELON, not an old coin, so its value can be considered a bit higher. However, as of now, the officials have not announced the release time. I hope they don’t drag it out until midnight 🥺.
This project is based in the U.S. and focuses on providing core power for decentralized finance through a modular currency market based on the Move language. It’s quite interesting. I wonder what the market’s expectations are for it? However, the current market situation is average, and whether it can be a big hit will depend on luck.
Today, I continue to refresh for OWL, and it’s really hard to refresh now. Sometimes I get caught up, and sometimes I can earn a little, but overall, it requires more time to refresh. It’s better to refresh when the market is more stable.
From the Quagmire of Inflation to Digital Freedom: A Young Argentine's Stablecoin Comeback
Last year I met a guy in Buenos Aires named Diego. He was in his early thirties, riding an old motorcycle, delivering food around the city. Inflation in Argentina was skyrocketing, with the peso changing price every single day, and Diego's salary was cut in half as soon as he received it. He told me, 'Man, no matter how hard I work, I can't save any money. Bank interest rates can’t keep up with prices, and the black market for dollars is both expensive and dangerous.' Diego's wife takes care of the kids at home and occasionally does some handicrafts to sell. Their biggest wish is to let their child attend a better school, so they won't be trapped by inflation like they are. But what’s the reality? Every time they go to the supermarket, prices have gone up again. Diego tried saving in Bitcoin, but the volatility is too high; he tried a bank dollar account, but it was heavily regulated.
The rewards for Plasma's creator activities are actually not issued every 14 days, everyone has been deceived 😂. Previously, a post in the plaza said that the DUSK event rewards are issued every 14 days, and I thought that all rewards after DUSK would be issued every 14 days. It wasn't until I asked customer service that I confirmed that only DUSK has rewards issued every 14 days, while other projects remain the same.
Plasma's activity rewards are issued 14 working days after the event ends, which means that after February 12, it will take another 14 working days to issue rewards. This time span is quite long. However, it's good that the XPL price is fluctuating greatly right now; issuing rewards now would actually decrease their value. It would be best if the XPL price goes up a bit 😀.
Now let me introduce @Plasma , Plasma is not an ordinary Layer 1; it has been focused on one goal from start to finish: to make global USD payments fast, cheap, and convenient. Not long after the mainnet went live, it already supports:
1️⃣ USDT transfers with zero fees! Yes, it's truly zero fees. Whether transferring 10 dollars or 10,000 dollars, not a single cent of gas is charged. The system has a Paymaster mechanism that automatically covers the fees, and you don't even need to hold any XPL to transfer directly. 2️⃣ Instant transfers: Using its own PlasmaBFT consensus, it handles thousands of transactions per second, with extremely short block times, essentially achieving sub-second finality. Sending money is as fast as sending a WeChat message. 3️⃣ Fully EVM compatible: DApps and contracts on Ethereum can be migrated directly without modifying the code. A paradise for developers. 4️⃣ Custom gas tokens: Besides zero-fee USDT, other operations can use USDT or even BTC to pay for gas, eliminating the need to exchange currencies everywhere. 5️⃣ Maximum security: PoS mechanism, institutional-level design, backed by Tether, suitable for large amounts of funds. #plasma $XPL
From Street Stall to Global Business: A Kenyan Girl and Her Journey with Digital Dollars
Two years ago, I met a girl named Sarah on the streets of Nairobi. She was in her early twenties and had a small stall in the market selling handmade jewelry and phone cases. The business wasn't big, earning a few hundred shillings a day, just enough to get by. But Sarah always complained about one thing: customers wanted to pay with their phones, but the local mobile wallet fees were shockingly high, and transfers were slow. Sometimes foreign tourists wanted to buy her things with credit cards or PayPal, and she had to wait several days for the money to arrive, losing a significant portion in fees. Damn credit cards and PayPal, they're also a hassle for me🥺.
The creator activity of Plasma has theoretically been 14 days by today, and rewards should be distributed today. Why haven't they been issued?
The Plasma activity started on January 16th and lasted for a total of 14 days until the 29th. The points for the 29th were updated on the 31st, so rewards should be distributed today. Why hasn't the official team released them? 🤔 Previously, it was announced that rewards would be issued every 14 days starting from DUSK.
However, given the current market situation, not issuing rewards might have its advantages, to avoid driving down the price of XPL too much. The market has dropped significantly from last night to today, and no one or coin has been spared. 😂

The Plasma ecosystem is accelerating, the 2026 payment revolution has just begun, let's witness it together! 🚀 #plasma $XPL
A few years ago, I had a friend named Amin who worked in Singapore and had to send money to his parents in the Philippines every month. At that time, he used traditional banks with absurdly high fees, taking several days for the money to arrive, and sometimes he got ripped off by the exchange rate.
Later, he switched to cryptocurrency, using USDT to transfer on Ethereum. He originally thought he was liberated, but during peak times, the gas fees skyrocketed to dozens of dollars, making small remittances not worth it at all. Every time Amin finished transferring money, he sighed, 'How is this blockchain even more congested than banks?' Until last year, he suddenly excitedly messaged me: 'Bro, I found the magic chain! It’s called Plasma, transferring USDT with zero fees, and it arrives in seconds!' I initially thought he was bragging, but after trying it myself, I found out that this thing is really different.
Hello everyone, today I want to have a serious discussion with you about the Layer 1 blockchain @Plasma . Its core goal is to address the two major pain points of stablecoins in actual payments: high fees and slow speeds, allowing stablecoins like USDT to truly become efficient global payment tools.
First, let's talk about the fee issue. Traditional cross-border payments (such as bank SWIFT) have high fees and slow arrival times, making small transfers often not worthwhile; even on the blockchain, Ethereum gas fees can reach several dollars during peak times, while Tron and Solana have lower fees but still incur costs, which can erode the value of small transactions. Plasma directly achieves zero fees for USDT transfers through a Paymaster mechanism subsidized by the protocol, so users and merchants do not need to pay any fees. This means that cross-border remittances, e-commerce settlements, salary disbursements, or daily small payments can be completed at zero cost, significantly lowering the threshold for the use of stablecoins in emerging markets and developing countries, shifting them from "investment assets" to "daily currency".
Secondly, there is performance. Stablecoin payments require immediacy and reliability, but many chains suffer from severe congestion under high load. Ethereum has long confirmation times, and while Solana is fast, its stability can occasionally fluctuate. Plasma utilizes an optimized PlasmaBFT consensus, achieving sub-second finality and thousands of TPS throughput, with transfers arriving almost in real-time while maintaining BFT-level security guarantees. This makes high-frequency scenarios (such as merchant collections and P2P transfers) reliable and predictable, avoiding waiting and uncertainty.
Plasma's positioning is very clear: it does not pursue universality but focuses on stablecoin payment infrastructure. Combined with EVM compatibility and the emerging ecosystem (such as Rain card, NEAR cross-chain, merchant tools), it is gradually solving the problem of stablecoins being "smooth on-chain and hard to use off-chain". In the future, with the launch of Bitcoin bridges and privacy features, use cases will become even broader.
If you are using stablecoin payments, Plasma is worth a try. What it solves is bringing us one step closer to "global instant low-cost transfers".
🧧🧧🧧 GM, everyone, have a great weekend. How was your week, did you make any money? The recent market has been so-so, I’m here to send a 🧧 to make everyone happy.
Plasma: The 'dark horse' of stablecoin payments, or the mischief-maker of traditional finance?
Imagine you want to transfer some money to a friend overseas. Traditional banks? Fill out a bunch of forms, wait three to five days, and the fees are enough for a big meal. Alipay and WeChat? Great domestically, but a mess for cross-border transactions. Credit cards? Merchant fees are painfully high, and users still have to pay the bills. In short, transferring money always feels like a struggle with your wallet. Then, by the end of 2025, a Layer 1 chain called Plasma will emerge, carrying its native token XPL, directly shouting out the slogan: Stablecoin payments, this is how it should be done! It doesn't aim for an all-purpose chain, but focuses on one thing - making USDT (and other stablecoins) transfers fast and free, while effortlessly addressing the pain points of traditional payments one by one. Today, let's talk about this 'trickster' and see if it's really valuable and if it has the true ability to disrupt our wallet life.
Is the reward for the Plasma XPL creator activity still issued every 14 days? If so, starting from the 16th, the points until the 29th should count as one cycle. Therefore, the day the points are updated on the 29th should issue rewards 😂.
Currently, points are updated T+2, so the update should happen on the evening of the 31st. Thus, the rewards will likely be issued on the evening of the 31st or the morning of February 1st.
Right now, the Plasma leaderboard is dropping every day; I hope I don't drop out. I need to work hard 😀!
The creator activity this time for @Plasma is quite good, with 500 spots available, which is pretty nice. Moreover, the use cases for Plasma are more compared to others, and it can be used regularly. Many other projects I haven't even used or heard of, in contrast, Plasma has a huge advantage.
I generally use Plasma for transfers; the fees are quite low, and the speed is very fast. Plasma is very user-friendly; how can such a useful Layer 1 blockchain not be promoted more?
Furthermore, Plasma is not limited to Binance; many other platforms and exchanges are also integrating it. I believe Plasma will have more users in the future, and the prospects are bright 👍. #plasma $XPL
Why is Plasma transfer so appealing? Let's explore.
@Plasma This project has taken an unconventional path since its inception; it is not a generic chain that tries to dabble in everything, but rather focuses intensely on stablecoin payments, particularly USDT transfers. In simple terms, it is an EVM-compatible Layer 1, supported by Tether and backed by notable figures like Founders Fund. The mainnet has been live for just a few months, and the TVL has already climbed to around 5 billion dollars, primarily driven by zero-fee transfers and sub-second confirmations attracting users.$XPL is its native token, with a total supply of 1 billion, featuring a slight deflationary mechanism. It is mainly used for staking to ensure network security, earning rewards, paying transaction fees (though USDT transfers are free), and governance. The price is currently fluctuating between 0.13-0.14 dollars, with a market cap of 200-300 million, stable trading volume, following ecosystem usage without major ups and downs, but the logic is sound.
