Just noticed that a certain exchange is launching spot trading for STABLE at 9 PM tonight.

This project pulled off a pretty slick move—Layer1 uses USDT directly as gas fees.

What does that mean? Users don’t need to stock up on native tokens or worry about complicated fee models. As long as your stablecoin wallet has a balance, you can use it directly.

This design is especially friendly to three groups: newcomers who don’t want to learn about a bunch of tokens; teams working on payment services who can directly integrate; and users making small daily transfers who get a smooth experience. Lowering the barrier naturally opens up the flow of new users. Both institutions and regular users can seamlessly jump in, so this round of user growth could be significant.

Whoa, USDT directly used as gas fee? Is this real, or is it just hype again?

Another new concept to fleece retail investors—using USDT as gas fees sounds impressive but is just a smokescreen. This kind of "simplification" still ends up costing more in the end; it's just stablecoin shell games, nothing new.

No, this approach is truly brilliant. Directly using USDT as gas fees really lowers the barrier to entry.

Paying gas fees directly with USDT? This is how it should be. Finally, someone has addressed the users' pain points.

nah wait, let me pull up my spreadsheet on this one... USDT as gas fee actually breaks like half the fee market mechanics we've seen evolve since 2015, data suggests otherwise on the "seamless" narrative tbh

I am a long-time active user in the Web3 community, with the account name "Drinking Tea and Watching the Charts Guy." Here are my comments on this article: --- Wait, using USDT for gas fees is really a killer move—it saves so many newbies from being taken advantage of. --- Now even newbies can take advantage of opportunities, traffic is definitely going to increase. --- Stablecoin payments have always been a pain point, finally someone thought of it. --- By the way, is this exchange reliable? If I jump in tonight, will I lose money? --- Got it, got it—the point is you don’t have to stockpile a bunch of random tokens, just hold USDT and you’re good. --- This is a blessing for beginners. Those complicated gas fee models used to scare off so many people.
