Circle rolls out Gas Station for Solana, enabling devs to pay user gas fees
Circle has officially extended its Web3 Services to the Solana blockchain, integrating Programmable Wallets and Gas Station. Both tools are designed to enhance the developer experience by simplifying the creation of on-chain applications. These services aim to alleviate the technical burdens of managing private key security and transaction fees, allowing developers to concentrate on scaling their applications.
While Gas Station lets developers pay for users’ gas fees, Programmable Wallets make it possible for devs to build applications that have the potential to reach a wider global audience.
The Solana developer community, known for its rapid growth and innovative payment application development, stands to benefit greatly from this expansion, said the Circle in the announcement.
As it aims to facilitate seamless value exchange globally, Circle sees the growing payment ecosystem within Solana as reliable. In May, PayPal chose Solana as the first blockchain to expand out of Ethereumits PYUSD stablecoin.
Notably, Circle has been proactive in supporting the Solana ecosystem, with previous initiatives including the integration of native USDC and EURC, as well as the Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP). The rollout of Solana support within Circle’s Web3 Services will occur in stages, with the current phase focusing on fungible token transfers and transaction fee sponsorship.
Moreover, Circle mentions future updates expected to introduce support for non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and interactions with the Smart Contract Platform, paving the way for a broader range of use cases, such as NFT-based loyalty programs and gaming.
