Plasma Chains and Fraud Proof Mechanisms, Explained Clearly

A few years ago, I remember watching Ethereum get crowded. Fees spiked, transactions slowed, and everyone asked the same question: How do we scale without breaking decentralization? That’s where Plasma chains quietly entered the conversation.

Plasma isn’t a single blockchain. It’s more like a family tree. You have Ethereum as the parent chain, and Plasma chains as children that handle most of the activity off the main network. Instead of every transaction hitting Ethereum directly, Plasma chains bundle activity and periodically report summaries back to the main chain. This alone reduces congestion and keeps fees lower.#plasma $XPL @Plasma
