Linea, the zero-knowledge layer-2 network built by Consensys, is now covering layer-2 gas fees for users bridging assets from Ethereum (ETH) mainnet.
The Linea team made the announcement on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday, adding that the offer applies only to its native bridge and comes with a few limits.
The goal is to make onboarding to Linea faster and simpler, and the team says it’s part of a broader push to reduce friction for new users.

The new offer covers transactions from Ethereum to Linea, while the latter’s native token is still pending launch. Earlier this year, Linea’s head of product said the team decided to wait for a more bullish crypto market before moving ahead with the token launch.
The Linea team also listed a few things to keep in mind: it only covers layer-1 to layer-2 transactions, won’t apply to anything that uses more than 250,000 gas, and it doesn’t include USD Coin (USDC) transfers through Circle’s CCTP.
That means users still need to pay for the Ethereum mainnet gas — often around $2 to $20 depending on network congestion. And the 250,000 gas cap means the covered layer-2 fee is up to about $20-$45, based on typical rates.
