Talking Tokens: Crypto, Onchain Finance, Investing · Why Plasma Bet Everything on USDT When Nobody Believed in Stablecoin Chains | Zaheer Evtakar, Plasma · 7 Jul 2026 podcast

Um I think there's gonna be a you know a bit of a trade off that needs to happen before people can feel super comfortable, you know, interacting with a lot of these applications.

I think in the next, you know, call it couple of years.

years you're gonna see more kind of the C D five um take off a little bit more.

And and I think that is probably going to be

you know, a little bit of the dream, you know, hung up, but at the same time get a lot more mass market appeal.

Correct.

It's right in between.

And I I think this this honestly like this was somewhat inevitable.

And it really just comes downstream of I think a lot of teams that um

didn't really do their work in terms of getting people up to speed on like any sort of major changes.

There are a lot of teams that have done this really well, um, that have taken a r really deliberate path on you know new network upgrades, new kind of app upgrades.

Um, but uh you know, by and large it's just not been up to the up to that standard.

But I think this kind of reset is needed for everyone to take it very seriously and that security and you know, c you know any sort of you know, exploit.

is a very drastic measure for anyone to actually undergo.

For plasma, I mean we've we've taken this step, you know, m months before any sort of major exploit has has happened.

I mean, thankfully nothing happened to our chain or our application at all.

Um, but at the same time, you know, for us it's always been the game of trying to get these stable coins as in in as many people's hands as possible and trying to make that experience a lot better.

So we've had to approach it from a more, you know, KYC, you know, perspective perspective as well.

So we still have a self

We just don't have it fully un you know, unbound from any sort of security practices.
