Mobile-first authentication just got a major upgrade. The R1 precompile—combining the R1 curve with EIP-7951—is now live at contract address 0x100, and it's a game-changer for wallet and user infrastructure developers.



What this means for developers:

You can finally implement secp256r1 signing flows with proper mobile optimization. Since direct secp256r1 verification is now gas-efficient, building authentication layers for decentralized applications becomes significantly more practical.

The gas optimization removes a major friction point. Previously, signature verification on-chain consumed considerable resources. Now? It's streamlined. This opens the door for better UX in mobile wallets, passwordless authentication patterns, and any dApp that prioritizes user experience over technical debt.

If you're building wallet solutions or user-facing infrastructure, this precompile makes it feasible to integrate modern authentication standards without compromise. The technical groundwork is there—it's time to build on top of it.

Another good news about gas optimization... but the real challenge is how many people can actually benefit from it.

Wait, can the gas fees be saved this much? I need to quickly see if I can get some rewards...

Bro, this time it's really a bottom signal. R1 crossing the line is a sign that Bitcoin is about to take off. I'm already fully invested.

I need to remember this address 0x100. Gas optimization can indeed save a lot of money.

Wait, the gas fee was directly cut down? Then I need to quickly see if I can get a passwordless wallet to try out.

ngl This round of gas optimization really needed to happen; finally, I don't have to burn through my money just to verify signatures.

Haha, finally got this one. It feels like the gas fee has been cut in half directly.
