Send USDC or USDT0 on HyperEVM without HYPE

You have USDC or USDT0 on HyperEVM but no HYPE, so your wallet cannot pay the gas. You can send it without getting HYPE first.

Send on HyperEVM How fees work

Why your wallet refuses

HyperEVM charges gas in HYPE, held on HyperEVM itself. Stablecoins cannot pay it in a normal transfer, so a wallet with 0 HYPE cannot move them.

Your options

How to send it with gasrescue

  1. Open gasrescue and connect a wallet such as MetaMask or Rabby. HyperEVM is already selected, and the token list shows what you hold.
  2. Enter the amount, or press Max to send everything, and the recipient. The quote lists the network fee, the service fee and what the recipient gets.
  3. Sign once in your wallet. We send the transaction and pay the gas.
  4. You get a link to the transaction in the block explorer.

What it costs

You send100 USDC
Service fee− 0.50 USDC
Network feeusually about a cent

The service fee is 0.5% of the amount, at least $0.25 and at most $2.00. Both fees are deducted from the amount you send, and the quote shows the exact figures before you sign.

What you sign

You sign one typed message, not a transaction, so you need no gas for it. Your wallet shows the amount and our contract. Recipient and fee are bound into a hash, so check those two in the quote on gasrescue.io. Transfer and fee run in one transaction: if it fails, nothing moves.

Need HYPE instead?

You can also swap a few dollars of your stablecoins into HYPE without holding any. It lands in your own wallet, so you can pay your own gas from then on. How a swap without gas works.

Common questions

Does this work for my Hyperliquid trading balance?

No. gasrescue moves tokens that sit in your own wallet on HyperEVM. A balance in a trading account on HyperCore is something else.

Which wallets work?

Wallets that support typed-data signatures, such as MetaMask or Rabby. Smart contract wallets, such as a Coinbase Smart Wallet, do not work yet.

Before you start

Transfers are final, so check the recipient address carefully. Only sign on gasrescue.io. gasrescue is in early access and independent of every chain and wallet named here, so please start with a small amount.
