It uses similar technology but the coin\u2019s real value is not its currency strength,<br> but its status as an application platform. Ethereum\u2019s ability to create smart contracts will likely be an immense part of the software industry,<br> and new developments are being published daily. \n---\n***\n___\n ![image (https:\/\/img.esteem.ws\/bf5nqkprrd.jpg)\n---\n***\n___\n#### This is where Plasma comes in. Plasma will get rid of unnecessary data in the root chain. It will handle smart contracts much like its foundation,<br> but will only broadcast completed transactions to the public Ethereum chain. This saves an enormous amount of processing power and memory for the chain\u2019s participants,<br> making it more inexpensive to interact with the system\u2019s other participants. It will also speed up transactions enough to let decentralized apps run without worrying about backlog.\n---\n***\n___\n ![image (https:\/\/img.esteem.ws\/vrazabfk1s.jpg)\n\nSource:-http:\/\/www.investopedia.com\/news\/what-plasma-and-how-will-it-strengthen-ethereum-blockchain\/",<br>"json_metadata":" \"links\":[\"http:\/\/www.investopedia.com\/news\/what-plasma-and-how-will-it-strengthen-ethereum-blockchain\/\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"https:\/\/img.esteem.ws\/bf5nqkprrd.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/img.esteem.ws\/vrazabfk1s.jpg\" ,<br>\"tags\":[\"ethereum\",<br>\"plasma\",<br>\"cryptocurrency\" ,<br>\"app\":\"esteem\/1.4.6\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown+html\",<br>\"community\":\"esteem\" " |
