Introduction
Plasma is live, and it is changing the stablecoin landscape forever.
The new, stablecoin-first Layer 1 blockchain launched today, bringing zero-fee USDT transfers and stablecoin-native UX to crypto.
Across is proud to be a day-one launch partner, powering stablecoin liquidity flows in and out of Plasma with the fastest, cheapest, and most secure bridge available.
Stablecoins are the future of global finance. Across is here to bridge the gap.
Plasma: The Blockchain Built for Stablecoins
Most blockchains were built around native gas tokens. Plasma takes a different approach: it’s a chain designed from the ground up for stablecoins. Specifically, Plasma provides two key features:
Zero-fee USDT transfers: Move stablecoins freely without worrying about fees eating into every transfer.
Pay fees with stablecoins: No need to juggle another token just to cover gas.
This streamlined UX makes Plasma especially well-suited for payments, trading, and settlement, where stablecoins already do the heavy lifting. It’s a chain built to support stablecoin adoption at trillion-dollar scale.
Why Across is the Perfect Bridge for Plasma
A new chain’s success depends on liquidity moving in quickly. That’s where Across Protocol comes in.
From day one, Across provides the fastest, cheapest, and most secure bridge for stablecoins into Plasma. Users can instantly move liquidity in or out, giving Plasma the liquidity backbone it needs to thrive.
Powering over $30 billion in bridging volume for more than 4 million users with zero security exploits, Across brings trustworthy and reliable bridging to Plasma’s ecosystem.
Across Protocol is the perfect bridge for Plasma’s stablecoin ecosystem.
Powered by Across V4 and Succinct ZK Proofs
This integration runs on Across V4, our next-generation architecture designed to bridge more chains, faster.
Here’s what makes it powerful:
Intent-based model: Intents provide the fastest, cheapest and most secure bridging model. Third-party relayers compete to give you the fastest, cheapest route available. As a user, you take on zero finality risk so you can enjoy peace of mind every time you bridge.
ZK verification: Succinct’s decentralized prover network generates zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs, strengthening security and unlocking expansion to non-EVM chains.
Offloaded infra: Provers handle the heavy lifting while Across ensures smooth settlement.
Future-proof design: This architecture is built to scale as bridging expands to more ecosystems.
The result is Plasma bridging that’s not only fast and cheap, but also ZK-verified for robust security guarantees.
