TechFlow news, October 21 — Bitget Wallet recently announced support for seamless gas payments using stablecoins. Users can now directly pay network fees in USDT, USDC, or the platform's native token BGB on Solana, TRON, and major EVM-compatible networks, without needing to hold or top up native tokens (such as ETH, TRX, or SOL) beforehand.
The feature automatically deducts the required gas fees from the user's existing stablecoin or BGB balance during transactions, eliminating the need for additional top-ups or a separate gas account. Supported networks currently include Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Solana, and TRON, with plans to expand to Plasma, Sei EVM, Morph, and other public blockchains in the future.
Previously, Bitget Wallet launched the "GetGas" feature, allowing users to pre-deposit USDT, USDC, ETH, or BGB for gas payments, though separate funding was still required. This upgrade leverages mechanisms such as EIP-7702, the Paymaster model, and energy leasing to further streamline the process, enabling gas payments without pre-funding.
Currently, Bitget Wallet supports cross-chain swaps and trading services across 24 major blockchains. Going forward, the wallet plans to extend its gas abstraction mechanism to cross-chain transactions, aiming to deliver a more seamless, gasless, and cross-chain user experience for self-custodial wallets.
