# 2.3 Gas Abstraction & Meta-Transactions

One of the primary friction points in Web3 is the requirement to hold ETH for gas. Accessth creates a natively gasless environment through a sophisticated Paymaster architecture.

Because the user is authorizing the movement of value, the protocol can programmably deduct the execution cost from the value being moved. The user acts as the "Director," and the Solvers (Nodes) act as the "Executors."

Definition: The Economic Abstraction Layer
\
A mechanism wherein the Accessth protocol interprets the user's Intent, calculates the necessary gas costs on the underlying L1 or L2, pays that gas on behalf of the user, and deducts the equivalent value from the user's Permission Set in a single atomic transaction.

This results in a UX where the concept of "gas" is completely invisible to the end-user.
