#plasma $XPL Brothers, in February 2026, BTC has been hovering around 80k, and there has been a slight flow of older coins on-chain (Glassnode shows that about 48,000 LTH net outflows in the past 7 days). As a HODLer who has held for many years, I watch my account shrink but dare not act rashly; my mentality is really about to collapse. Last year, I chased the meme coin craze, and animals like WIF and BONK had several times the gains, but when they corrected, they were directly halved by 80%. The community dispersed faster than it came, and now there's only regret left.
Recently, I saw a creator task for Plasma (XPL) on the plaza, with a reward pool of 3.5 million XPL (which is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars at the current price). After the rule change, it emphasizes deep original content and real interaction, and even those with 0 followers can rank up with high-quality works. I tried writing for a few days; my points shot from 0 to the top 180 in the Chinese region, and I got a maximum of 89 points for a single article. The XPL I've earned is already enough to keep me caffeinated in Tokyo for a month.
Why did Plasma make me turn around immediately after the meme sentiment faded? Because it doesn't play with illusions: it focuses purely on L1 stablecoin payments, with a built-in paymaster that makes USDT transfers truly fee-free (I tested it with 40 transactions, and the total fees were less than $0.002). The confirmation arrives within one second, perfectly suited for cross-border small payments, on-chain tipping, and daily micro-payments, which are trillion-level necessities. Fully EVM compatible, it allows low-cost migration from mature Ethereum protocols, and the TVL has stabilized at several billion dollars (Dune data shows that stablecoins account for over 85%, growing slowly but driven by real users). $XPL is currently around $0.094 (down more than 94% from its peak), with a market cap just over 180 million, severely mispriced by the market, but the payment narrative is a long-term necessity, not just air driven by KOLs.
Task with zero capital: You don't need to sell BTC; just write about real tests, data breakdowns, and personal reflections to earn rewards and buffer against the bear market. Meme coins have played out; this combination of a practical chain that is 'easy to use + makes money', along with tasks, will be truly appealing during the 2026 correction period. Have you also stepped back from memes? Have you experienced the zero-fee USDT transfers with Plasma? Feel free to share your meme blood and tears history in the comments or share your task insights, and let's roll out some real stuff together!
