zk-rollup teams must manage dual balances: ETH for gas and USDT for operations.
Cost forecasting is difficult because ETH/USDT exchange rates fluctuate.
Teams hedge token exposure, adding treasury and accounting overhead.
Proof generation jobs are provisioned directly in USDT/hour.
Plasma’s paymaster covers all underlying gas.
No secondary token management is required.
Single-Currency Cost Basis: zk teams can plan compute budgets directly in stablecoins.
Predictable OPEX: Proof generation becomes a stable line item, comparable to SaaS infrastructure.
Simplified Operations: Treasury exposure to volatile tokens is eliminated.
