How Plasma Works?

‍

Plasma's power comes from its unique three-layer architecture that cherry-picks the best features from the crypto ecosystem.

The Execution Layer (The Engine): This is where smart contracts run. Plasma uses Reth, a high-performance version of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). This means wallets like MetaMask and developer tools like Foundry work right out of the box.

The Consensus Layer (The Rule Book): This layer decides the order of transactions. Plasma uses a fast consensus mechanism that can finalize transactions in seconds, enabling it to handle thousands of transactions per second (TPS).

The Settlement Layer (The Vault): This is Plasma’s ultimate security feature. The network regularly bundles up its transaction history and anchors it to the Bitcoin blockchain. This gives Plasma a powerful security guarantee that is nearly as strong as Bitcoin itself.
