Apps that want to remove gas from the user experience entirely, so a first-time user can sign in and transact without acquiring a second asset first.

​
The problem

Requiring users to acquire a gas token before using an app creates an onboarding cliff that kills conversion for consumer-facing products. A new user who shows up with only USDT (or nothing at all) can’t submit a transaction, and pushing them to a separate exchange to buy gas is where most of them drop off.

​
How Stable addresses it

  • Gas waiver: governance-approved waiver addresses submit wrapper transactions that execute at zero gas price on the user’s behalf, so the app covers gas end-to-end and the user sees a free action. See Gas waiver.
  • EIP-7702 session keys let a dApp hold scoped, time-limited permissions, so it can submit transactions on the user’s behalf without the user signing each one. See EIP-7702.
