Plasma launched its Layer-1 mainnet, purpose-built for stablecoins, with $2 billion in USD₮0 liquidity already on-chain.

Summary
  • Plasma launched its layer 1 mainnet, built specifically for stablecoin transfers
  • The network will have $ billion in Tether’s cross-chain USD₮0 stablecoin on launch
  • Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund is among Plasma’s backers

Stablecoins are quickly growing into one of the most compelling use cases for crypto. On Thursday, Sept. 25, Plasma, a layer-1 blockchain purpose-built for stablecoins, launched its mainnet with $2 billion in USD₮0 liquidity live from day one.

Marketed as the world’s first “stablecoin chain,” Plasma received backing from both Tether’s ecosystem and Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund. As a result, Tether’s omnichain stablecoins USD₮0 and XAU₮0, powered by LayerZero, are available on Plasma immediately at launch.

Plasma to take on stablecoin settlement

Unlike general-purpose networks, where stablecoin transfers compete with DeFi and smart contracts, Plasma focuses specifically on stablecoin settlement. The network leverages PlasmaBFT, a consensus mechanism with sub-second finality, deterministic confirmation times, and low fees. According to the network, these features remain robust even during peak times.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
