Zaheer backed and contributed to @Plasma back when it was just a vision.
Incredibly excited to have the mind behind many of our recent moves officially onboard as our Chief Strategic Officer.

Since our launch on Thursday, Plasma has processed more than 2 million transactions.
1.4 million of those were in the last 12 hours, more than Thursday and Friday combined.
We're just getting started.
Since its inception, we have designed @Plasma to be the home for stablecoins.
Now we’re opening the doors to the world, optimizing global money movement using digital dollars.
Looking to build on Plasma?
Plasma goes live with 100+ DeFi and payments applications, alongside key infrastructure providers.
These partners form the building blocks of the chain, and we invite anyone exploring stablecoins to use these tools to create life-changing applications with digital dollars.
