United Stables is worth checking out. The core technology of $U is EIP-3009 (Gasless Signatures). Typically, ERC-20 token transfers require the sender to pay gas fees, but $U has integrated the EIP-3009 standard at the code level, allowing third parties to subsidize gas fees. $U isn’t just a stablecoin. It’s like wrapping all stablecoins with an additional layer. Similar to Binance’s previous BUSD, both stablecoins and fiat can be exchanged for $U with zero friction. This is a bet on the future where stablecoins are fragmented into small granular units. In that scenario, $U will be incredibly powerful. Huobi was the first to support $U and even offered a 20% annualized yield subsidy. Early on, Binance also subsidized gas fees, enabling free transfers. This strategy is like “surrounding the cities from the countryside.” Chinese users will instantly get it. The basic takeaway is: Binance and Sun Ge are teaming up to challenge Circle.
