How to convert USD Coin to Plasma

The widget above is already set to USDC on Ethereum → XPL on Plasma. The whole swap runs in one flow through NEAR Intents:

Step 1: Choose how to pay
Connect any EVM wallet such as MetaMask or Rabby that holds your USDC. Or turn on Swap from external wallet to get a deposit address and QR code you can pay from any wallet or exchange; you then add an address on Ethereum for refunds.

Step 2: Enter the amount and where to receive
Type how much USDC to swap and the Plasma address that receives the XPL, from any EVM wallet such as MetaMask or Rabby. The widget shows how much XPL you will receive, fees included, before you confirm.

Step 3: Confirm and send
Approve the transfer in your wallet, or send the amount to the deposit address. Once it confirms on Ethereum, solvers fill the swap and the XPL is sent to your address on Plasma. If the swap can't be filled, your USDC is refunded.

Prefer to keep a balance inside NEAR Intents? The Deposit tab adds USDC to it, Swap trades within it, and Withdraw sends tokens out to their own networks.

⚠ Important: receive on an address you control. If you send the XPL to an exchange instead, check that it accepts XPL on Plasma: some exchanges don't credit deposits that come from a smart contract.

About the USDC → XPL swap

This is a cross-chain swap: your USDC leaves Ethereum and XPL arrives on Plasma. Normally that takes a bridge plus a DEX, or a centralized exchange account. With NEAR Intents the deposit, swap and withdrawal happen in one flow, and what lands in your wallet is XPL on Plasma, ready to use there with no second bridging step.

Swapping USDC to XPL is how you buy Plasma with US dollars you already hold on-chain: you pay in a stablecoin and receive XPL directly on Plasma.

About USD Coin and Plasma

What is USD Coin (USDC)?

USDC is a US dollar stablecoin issued by Circle, first launched in September 2018 through the Centre consortium that Circle founded with Coinbase. Circle now manages the token directly, and USDC is issued natively on a range of blockchains, with Ethereum among the largest.

How USD Coin works

Each USDC is meant to be redeemable for one dollar, and Circle mints or burns tokens as institutional customers deposit or withdraw funds. Reserves are held in cash and short-dated US government obligations, largely through a dedicated fund, and Circle publishes regular reports on their composition.

What USDC is used for

USDC is widely used for settlement and payments, both in crypto markets and in business transfers that benefit from moving dollars at any hour. In decentralized finance it serves as a common unit for lending, liquidity pools and trading.

USDC supply

Supply is elastic: USDC is created when dollars are deposited and destroyed when it is redeemed. Circle aims to keep reserves equal to or greater than the amount of USDC in circulation.

Before you swap USDC

The widget defaults to USDC on Ethereum, but the same token also lives on Solana, NEAR, Base and other chains, so select the network your wallet actually uses. Beware of bridged versions with similar names, which are not the same as natively issued USDC.

What is Plasma (XPL)?

Plasma is a layer-1 blockchain designed around stablecoin payments, and XPL is its native token. The mainnet beta and the token launched together on 25 September 2025. The team also builds Plasma One, a stablecoin account and card app that runs on the network.

How Plasma works

Plasma reaches consensus with PlasmaBFT, a pipelined version of the Fast HotStuff protocol in which staked validators finalize blocks within seconds, and it executes transactions on an Ethereum-compatible engine built on Reth. Validators that misbehave lose rewards rather than their stake. The network started with a small set of known validators and plans to open validation to the public over time.

What XPL is used for

XPL pays transaction fees on Plasma, which currently accepts gas only in XPL, and it is the stake validators lock to secure the network. Plasma is also building a protocol-run paymaster so apps can let users pay fees in stablecoins instead.

XPL supply

Ten billion XPL existed at the mainnet beta launch. Validator rewards are planned to start at 5% annual inflation and fall by half a percentage point a year to 3%, but they only switch on once external validators and delegation go live. Base fees are burned, as on Ethereum.

Before you swap XPL

XPL arrives as the native coin of Plasma mainnet beta (chain ID 9745) at a standard 0x address, so add the Plasma network to your EVM wallet to see it. Keep some XPL afterwards, since gas on Plasma is currently paid in XPL even when you move stablecoins.
