In this episode, we’re joined by Paul Faecks, the Founder of Plasma, and Zaheer of Split Capital, to discuss Plasma, a blockchain focused solely on providing stablecoin infrastructure. We dive into why general-purpose chains aren’t optimized for stablecoin settlement, Plasma’s architecture and how they will mitigate spam, and the broader implications for global payments, regulation, and the stablecoin economy’s future as trillions move onchain.
