BNB Chain Extends 0 Fee Carnival for USDC and USD1 Transfers

BNB Chain has announced the extension of its 0 Fee Carnival, allowing users to transfer USDC and USD1 stablecoins without any gas fees. This initiative, now extended until November 30, 2025, aims to make stablecoin transfers more accessible and affordable for users worldwide, according to BNB Chain.

Fee-Free Transfers and Withdrawals

The 0 Fee Carnival covers the costs of gas fees for withdrawals, transfers, and bridging of USDC and USD1. This initiative comes as part of BNB Chain’s mission to simplify the process of moving stablecoins across different platforms, making it both fast and cost-effective. Since its launch, the program has covered over $4 million in gas fees, benefiting numerous users.

Supported Platforms and Conditions

The fee-free service is available across several major centralized exchanges (CEXs) including Binance, Bitget, MEXC, Bitmart, Ourbit, BingX, LBank, and HTX. The minimum withdrawal amounts vary by platform, with Binance requiring a minimum of $10 for USD1 and USDC on the BNB Smart Chain, and $20 for USDC on opBNB.

Additionally, the initiative supports wallet-to-wallet transfers on BSC, with unlimited transfers for USD1 and two free transfers per day for USDC, with a minimum transfer amount of $0.10.

Bridging Across Chains

Users can also benefit from gas-free bridging of USDC across various chains using Celer cBridge and Meson.fi. Supported source chains include Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, Avalanche, and Optimism, with zero bridge fees or full rebates available for eligible transactions.

Growing Impact of the 0 Fee Movement

BNB Chain’s 0 Fee Carnival is part of a broader movement to revolutionize stablecoin transactions by eliminating gas fees. As more wallets, CEXs, and bridges join this initiative, the ease and cost-effectiveness of stablecoin transfers are expected to improve further.
