Bitget Wallet has announced support for stablecoin-based gas payments across eight major blockchains, powered by Ethereum’s EIP-7702 upgrade.

The move allows users to pay transaction fees in stablecoins such as USDT and USDC, as well as Bitget’s native BGB token, without holding the native gas tokens of each network.

The new feature is part of Bitget Wallet’s gas abstraction initiative and is available on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Solana, and TRON.

Through EIP-7702, the wallet enables regular externally owned accounts (EOAs) to temporarily gain smart contract functionality, making it possible to delegate gas payment logic per transaction.

“By integrating EIP-7702, Bitget Wallet is taking another major step toward simplifying on-chain transactions,” said Jamie Elkaleh, Chief Marketing Officer at Bitget Wallet.

“It removes one of the most persistent frictions in Web3 — the need to manage native gas tokens across fragmented ecosystems.”

Unlike other gas abstraction solutions that require users to migrate to smart contract wallets, Bitget’s implementation retains the existing EOA structure. The system automatically deducts fees in stablecoins or BGB, while handling gas conversions behind the scenes.

The update follows growing competition among major wallets exploring similar models.

While MetaMask and OKX Wallet have tested limited gas abstraction features, Bitget’s rollout marks one of the first large-scale, multi-chain deployments of EIP-7702 technology.

Bitget said it plans to expand stablecoin gas payment support to more networks and continue improving cross-chain usability in upcoming updates.

Bitget Unified Trading and Market Expansion

Bitget is extending its innovation beyond wallets to strengthen its broader ecosystem. The exchange recently unified trading across Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, and Base, allowing users to access all four networks through a single account.

This upgrade eliminates the need for separate wallets or cross-chain bridges, advancing Bitget’s goal of building a Universal Exchange that connects centralized and decentralized markets under one platform.

In parallel, Bitget continues to show strong market performance. The platform now processes an average of $750 billion in monthly derivatives trading volume, maintaining top-tier liquidity rankings for ETH, SOL, and BTC.

It has also surpassed $200 million in U.S. stock futures trading, driven by growing demand for tokenized assets like Tesla and NVIDIA futures.

Together, these developments highlight Bitget’s strategy to merge traditional finance with blockchain infrastructure while expanding its global trading footprint.
