BNB Chain has launched a groundbreaking initiative known as the “Gas-Free Carnival,” offering users the opportunity to transfer stablecoins such as $USDT, $USDC, and $FDUSD without incurring any gas fees. This promotion, which runs until March 31, 2025, aims to enhance the stability and accessibility of stablecoin transactions within the BNB Chain ecosystem. The initiative highlights BNB Chain’s commitment to fostering a seamless user experience while promoting decentralized finance (DeFi) adoption.
The Gas-Free Carnival is supported by numerous centralized exchanges (CEXs) including Binance, Bitget, Bitmart, Flipster, MEXC, Ourbit, Gate.io, LBank, and BingX. These exchanges have collaborated with BNB Chain to offer zero-fee withdrawals for stablecoins on both the BNB Smart Chain (BSC) and opBNB networks. This initiative allows users to transfer their stablecoins from these exchanges to BNB Chain without worrying about transaction fees, provided they meet the minimum withdrawal amounts set by each exchange.
Beyond exchanges, BNB Chain has expanded the promotion to include a variety of wallet providers. Users of Bitget Wallet, SafePal, Coin98, imToken, Mathwallet, Gate Web3 Wallet, Tokenpocket, and others can perform up to two gas-free transfers per day with stablecoins like $USDT, $USDC, and $FDUSD. This initiative is aimed at reducing the barriers to entry for users who prefer to store their assets in wallets, allowing them to engage in seamless transfers without the concern of paying gas fees.
Bridge Stablecoins for Free and Unlock DeFi Rewards
BNB Chain has also partnered with Celer cBridge and Meson.fi to facilitate cross-chain transfers with zero fees. For users who hold stablecoins on other blockchains such as Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, or Avalanche, this partnership allows them to bridge their assets to BNB Chain without the usual gas fees. By transferring stablecoins from different blockchains to BNB Chain, users can easily access high-yield DeFi products and diversify their portfolios across multiple platforms.
Celer cBridge and Meson.fi’s involvement in this promotion makes it easier for users to capitalize on BNB Chain’s growing DeFi ecosystem. Through Celer’s cBridge, users can transfer $USDT, $USDC, and $FDUSD from Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, and other networks to BNB Chain without incurring any bridge fees. Similarly, Meson.fi offers zero platform fees and gas rebates for transfers from Ethereum, Tron, and other chains to BNB Chain. These cross-chain functionalities are key to fostering liquidity across decentralized ecosystems, and with zero fees, users have an unprecedented opportunity to explore the BNB Chain DeFi landscape.
The Gas-Free Carnival also opens up opportunities for users to engage in high-yield farming and staking activities across DeFi protocols. By participating in yield farming with stablecoins like $USDT and $USDC, users can earn attractive annual percentage yields (APYs) without the burden of transaction costs.
BNB Chain’s Gas-Free Carnival is a significant step toward enhancing the accessibility and efficiency of stablecoin transactions within the blockchain and DeFi ecosystems. By eliminating gas fees for transfers, withdrawals, and bridging, BNB Chain is making it easier for users to engage with decentralized finance protocols and maximize the utility of their assets.
