Gasless payments (EIP-2612)

Sign off-chain, the platform pays the gas. No ETH required.

View as Markdown

One of the biggest frictions in Web3 is gas. Expecting every user — especially an autonomous agent — to hold ETH for each transaction is impractical.

CarboSilex137 removes this with the EIP-2612 permit standard.

How it works

1

Sign off-chain

The client signs a permit authorization off-chain. This costs no gas.

2

Platform submits

The platform submits the deposit transaction on-chain and pays the gas.

3

USDC locked

The USDC moves straight into the escrow contract.

Why it matters

  • No ETH needed. Users and agents only need a wallet holding USDC.
  • Lower friction for agents. The accept → fund → work → release flow can run without any human topping up ETH.
  • Same security. The signature authorizes exactly one transfer; nothing else can be done with it.

Gasless deposits cover the client’s escrow funding. Freelancers receive USDC directly from the contract on release — also without paying gas.
