Why Gas-Only Transfers Will Change the Way You Think About LUSD and Web3 Global Payments

Gas fees are killing crypto payments.

Every transaction. Every transfer. Every checkout. Fees stack up. Merchants lose margins. Customers bail.

Until now.

Gas-only transfers are here. And they're about to flip everything you know about Web3 payments on its head.

The Problem With Traditional Crypto Payment Processors

Let's be real. Most crypto payment platforms are glorified middlemen.

NOWPayments? They charge processing fees on top of network costs. CoinPayments? Same story, percentage-based fees that eat into every sale. Triple-A? Better, but still not solving the core issue.

The entire model is broken.

Here's what you're paying with legacy processors:

• Processing fees: 0.5%–1% per transaction

• Network gas fees: Variable (and often brutal)

• Conversion fees: Hidden costs when swapping tokens

• Withdrawal fees: Getting your funds out costs even more

Add it up. You're looking at 2%–4% per transaction. Sometimes more.

That's not disruption. That's traditional finance with extra steps.

Enter Gas-Only Transfers With LUSD

Larecoin built something different.

LUSD, our stablecoin, operates on a gas-only transfer model. What does that mean?

Zero processing fees. Zero platform cuts. You pay only the network gas.

That's it.

No hidden percentages. No interchange fees bleeding you dry. Just the raw cost of moving value on-chain.

For merchants, this translates to immediate, measurable savings. We're talking 50%+ reduction in transaction costs compared to traditional payment rails, and even bigger savings against other crypto processors.

How Gas-Only Actually Works

Traditional stablecoins require smart contract interactions that compound costs. Every approval, every transfer, every settlement adds gas overhead.

LUSD streamlines the entire flow:

1. Single-signature transfers: No multi-step approvals

2. Optimized contract architecture: Minimal computational load

3. Direct settlement: Funds move straight to your wallet

The result? Transactions that cost pennies instead of dollars.

Self-Custody: Your Money, Your Control

Here's where it gets interesting.

Most payment processors hold your funds. You're trusting a third party with your revenue. They control withdrawals. They set limits. They can freeze accounts.

Sound familiar? It should. It's exactly how traditional banking works.

Larecoin takes a different approach.

Full self-custody from day one.

Your LUSD lands directly in your wallet. Not ours. Not a custodial pool. Yours.

Master/Sub-Wallet Architecture

Running multiple locations? Multiple brands? Multiple revenue streams?

Our master/sub-wallet system lets you:

• Segregate funds by location, department, or product line

• Maintain unified oversight through a single dashboard

• Automate distributions based on custom rules

• Keep complete self-custody at every level

No more pooled funds. No more waiting for batch settlements. Real-time access to every dollar you earn.

NFT Receipts: Proof That Actually Means Something

Paper receipts fade. Digital receipts get lost in email. Traditional transaction records are a nightmare to audit.

NFT receipts solve all of it.

Every Larecoin transaction can generate an immutable, on-chain receipt. Permanent. Verifiable. Impossible to fake.

Why This Matters for Merchants

• Instant audit trails: Every sale recorded forever

• Dispute resolution: Irrefutable proof of payment

• Customer loyalty: Receipts become collectible brand touchpoints

• Tax compliance: Clean, exportable transaction history

For your customers? They get a permanent record of every purchase. No more digging through emails. No more lost warranties.

The Crypto POS Revolution

Forget clunky card readers and expensive terminal leases.

Larecoin's QR-generated POS turns any device into a payment terminal.

Phone. Tablet. Laptop. Smart display.

Generate a dynamic QR code. Customer scans. Payment settles. Done.

Comparison: Traditional POS vs. Larecoin

Feature	Traditional POS	Larecoin QR POS
Hardware cost	$200–$800	$0
Monthly fees	$30–$100	$0
Transaction fees	2.5%–3.5%	Gas only
Settlement time	1–3 days	Instant
Self-custody	No	Yes

The math is obvious. The savings are real.

Compliance You Can Trust

Innovation means nothing without legitimacy.

Larecoin operates as a federally registered Money Services Business (MSB). We maintain state-level Money Transmitter Licenses (MTL) across the U.S.

This isn't some offshore operation hoping regulators don't notice.

We're building within the system. Working with regulators. Setting the standard for compliant Web3 payments.

What MTL Compliance Means for You

• Legal clarity: Operate with confidence

• Banking relationships: Easier fiat on/off ramps

• Enterprise adoption: Big players require licensed partners

• Consumer protection: Your customers are covered

NOWPayments and CoinPayments? Check their licensing status. Most operate in regulatory gray zones that create real risk for merchants.

The Future: Metaverse Shopping and Beyond

Gas-only transfers aren't just about today's savings.

They're infrastructure for tomorrow's commerce.

Larecoin is building the B2B2C metaverse: a social shopping experience where VR/AR isn't a gimmick. It's the interface.

What's Coming

• Virtual storefronts: Immersive brand experiences

• Social commerce: Shop with friends in shared spaces

• AR try-before-you-buy: Digital fitting rooms

• Instant checkout: LUSD gas-only payments, everywhere

Imagine browsing a virtual mall. Picking up products. Examining them in 3D. Buying with a gesture.

Gas-only transfers make this possible. When transactions cost pennies, micro-interactions become viable. Impulse purchases don't get killed by fee anxiety.

The metaverse economy needs payment rails that actually scale. We're building them.

The Bottom Line

Legacy crypto payment processors replicated the problems they claimed to solve.

High fees. Custodial control. Slow settlements. Regulatory uncertainty.

Larecoin took a different path.

Gas-only transfers slash costs to the bare minimum. Self-custody puts you in control. NFT receipts create permanent, verifiable records. QR-generated POS eliminates hardware overhead. MTL compliance keeps you on the right side of regulators.

And the metaverse integration? That's where it all comes together.

This isn't incremental improvement. It's a fundamental rethink of how Web3 payments should work.
