In the cryptocurrency field, a smooth transaction experience is the cornerstone of ecosystem prosperity. However, Gas fees (miner fees) have always been an invisible wall in front of users. In traditional blockchain networks, users must hold and consume native tokens (such as TRX from TRON) to pay transaction fees, which not only increases operational complexity but may also cause transaction failures due to insufficient Gas fees or price fluctuations. For newcomers, this mechanism is tantamount to a "deterrent threshold". When the network is congested, the uncertainty of transaction costs becomes even more unbearable for high-frequency traders. Can blockchain transfers become as simple as sending an email, without worrying about Gas fees?
The TRON ecosystem provides an answer, with JustLend DAO officially launching the GasFree service, breaking through transaction rules with four innovative breakthroughs:
1. No TRX Required, Stablecoin Direct Fee Payment: Users do not need to hold TRX; fees can be directly paid with USDT, with smart contracts automatically completing settlement, completely eliminating the complexity of multi-currency management.
2. Protocol Subsidy Reduces Costs: Official fee subsidies lower the transaction cost to as low as 1 USDT, significantly reducing the entry barrier for high-frequency payment scenarios.
3. Transparent and Controllable Costs: GasFree supports TRC20-USDT transfers and fee payments, allowing users to intuitively estimate costs and reduce the impact of currency price fluctuations.
The launch of GasFree is not just a technical iteration, but also establishes a foundation for TRON's large-scale application in cross-border payments and inclusive finance through the flywheel effect of "stablecoin circulation - low-threshold access - ecosystem prosperity". From the user perspective, reduced operational costs and experience optimization make it infinitely close to traditional payment tools, attracting massive new users; from the protocol side, JustLend DAO captures stablecoin liquidity to feed the subsidy fund pool, forming a self-circulating economic model; from the ecosystem perspective, TRON, with over half of the network's USDT circulation through TRC20-USDT, further consolidates its global status as the "stablecoin highway".
Today, the TronLink wallet has been the first to implement the GasFree function, with users able to enjoy friction-free transactions after three activation steps. The following will delve into its technical principles and operational paths, revealing the full picture of this on-chain efficiency revolution.
I. Create Wallet
Download TronLink
Users wanting to create a GasFree account need to visit the TronLink wallet's official website or download the official app from the app store. To ensure wallet compatibility and security, users need to download and install TronLink App v4.15.0 or TronLink plugin v4.2.0 and above.
Create GasFree Wallet
Method 1: Click "Explore GasFree" directly on the TronLink universal wallet homepage.
Method 2: When creating or importing a universal wallet, check "Create GasFree wallet simultaneously" or "Import GasFree wallet simultaneously".
Backup Seed Phrase
Save the generated seed phrase, which is the only credential for recovering the universal wallet and GasFree wallet.
II. Activate Wallet
First Transfer Triggers Activation
After completing the first GasFree authorized transfer, the user successfully activates the GasFree wallet. Enter the GasFree wallet and click "Send", the system will check if the GasFree wallet is activated. If the wallet is not activated, a message will prompt that "Due to the GasFree wallet not being activated, activation fee and transfer service fee will be charged".
Pay Activation Fee
Pay the activation fee and current transfer service fee, and once the transaction is recorded on the chain, the wallet will be activated.
III. Transfer Guide
When making a GasFree authorized transfer, users do not need to go through multiple signature confirmations, only requiring signature confirmation from the corresponding universal wallet. This design not only simplifies the transfer process but also improves transfer efficiency. However, users must ensure wallet security and proceed cautiously with each step.
Initiate Transfer
In the GasFree wallet, enter the recipient address → Select token → Enter amount.
Fee Confirmation
Activated wallet: Only displays transfer service fee
Unactivated wallet: Adds activation fee + transfer fee
Submit Transaction
Click "Submit", with the GasFree service provider handling the on-chain record, status changes to "Processing" → "Completed".
Tip: Currently, GasFree function only supports TRC20-USDT transfers. Even if unsupported tokens are accidentally sent to a GasFree wallet, there's no need to worry. In such cases, the page will prompt: "X tokens do not support transfer", and non-supported tokens can be withdrawn to the universal wallet.
IV. View GasFree Transaction Records
On the GasFree wallet homepage, find the target token you want to view transaction records for, click to enter the details page, and you can view all GasFree-related transaction records for that token, including transfer records and contract trigger records.
The birth of the GasFree service is not only a technical innovation but also a milestone for TRON in practicing the "user-first" concept.
Now, immediately access and experience the efficient on-chain operation:
Activate Immediately: Open or download the TronLink wallet (https://www.tronlink.org/), enter the "Experience GasFree" page, and complete authorization in 3 steps;
Try Transfer: Currently, GasFree supports TRC20-USDT transfers and fee payments, providing a smooth transaction experience;
Explore Ecosystem: Participate in lending and staking based on JustLend's liquidity pool to improve asset efficiency.
In the future, as GasFree expands to cross-chain settlement and enterprise-level applications, it will break through the last technical barrier to decentralized asset popularization, further pushing TRON towards the high ground of stablecoin settlement and inclusive finance.
