Sui has recently implemented gasless stablecoin transactions on its mainnet, solving one of the user experience problems that still plagues most blockchains. Traditionally, when using established blockchains, users need the base token to pay transaction fees for any transfer. Sui has solved this adoption impediment by eliminating these fees for stablecoins, meaning that any payments using these tokens will pay 0 in fees for USDsui, SuiUSDe, AUSD, FDUSD, USDB, USDC, and USDY.
