Gasless execution in V2: swap without holding the gas token first

How BlazePhoenix V2 targets gasless entry using signed authorisations and permit-style flows, so a first-time user can swap without pre-funding gas. Specified, pre-audit.

Known formally as Gasless Execution in the BlazePhoenix whitepaper.

By Mitra (@Sigmacrit) — anonymous developer of the BlazePhoenix protocol. The code is the résumé.

BlazePhoenix V2 is pre-deployment and under audit; this is the intended flow. The classic chicken-and-egg of self-custody is that you need the native gas token to make your first move, but you have not swapped for it yet. V2 targets gasless entry: the user signs an authorisation, and execution is submitted so the gas is abstracted away from that first interaction.

Signatures, not custody

The design leans on signed, scope-limited authorisations — permit-style token approvals and account-abstraction style execution — so the user proves intent with a signature while never handing over custody. The floor and result verification still apply, so gasless does not mean trustless-of-outcome: the same on-chain guarantees bind the sponsored transaction as any other.

On mainnet launch, confirm a gasless swap on /verify still enforces the same minOut floor as a self-funded one — sponsorship must not relax settlement guarantees
