How Spark DEX Implements Gasless Trading via Account Abstraction on Blast

This guide provides a technical breakdown of how to trade on Spark DEX, focusing on the smart contract architecture that enables its signature Spark DEX CEX UX: Spark DEX Account Abstraction and Spark DEX gasless trading.

Step 1: Onboarding with a Smart Wallet

When you sign up for Spark DEX Official using a social login, you aren't generating a traditional EOA (Externally Owned Account). Instead, the protocol deploys a unique smart contract wallet for you on the Spark DEX on Blast L2 network. Your social account or passkey becomes a "signer" authorized to control this wallet. This is a core feature of the protocol's user-centric design.

Step 2: Executing a Trade via User Operations

From the trading terminal, you build your trade for Spark DEX perpetuals.

You sign a "UserOperation" message with your passkey. This is not a standard Ethereum transaction.

This UserOperation is sent to a public mempool for "Bundlers."

A Bundler packages your operation into a standard transaction and pays the gas fee on your behalf.

This is how Spark DEX gasless trading is achieved. The protocol subsidizes the gas fees, abstracting them away from the end-user entirely.

Step 3: Earning Rewards

Your trading activity is tracked by the protocol's backend, and your smart wallet is credited with Spark DEX points. Because the platform is built on Blast, your collateral automatically earns native yield, and you also receive Spark DEX Blast Gold.
