Let’s face it.
Self-custodial crypto wallets are long due for an upgrade.
The UX is clunky and complex and, unlike Web2 bank accounts, there are very few security features.
Why is that?
Because users are accountable for protecting their private keys, where one wrong move can completely wipe away their funds.
The cost and likelihood of error are massive, and even the most experienced crypto users have lost control of their accounts with one careless move...
At Braavos, our mission is to make crypto simple and secure for everyday users. And truthfully, we have a long way to go.
But few innovations will be as successful as account abstraction in helping us reach this goal.
Account abstraction is cited by Vitalik Buterin as a “long-time dream” for the Ethereum developer community.
It is a critical upgrade in wallet structure that provides users with greater security, more flexibility, and, most importantly, a significantly better user experience.
Smart contract wallets (aka account abstraction) reduce the friction of self-custodial wallet products, allowing everyday users to safely store their assets and customize their security preferences.
All without facing the risks that come along with losing their private key.
Finally, this technology is the fundamental UX breakthrough needed for non-custodial blockchain wallets to scale to millions of mainstream crypto-users.
Shoutout to StarkWare for bringing native Account Abstraction built-in Starknet’s protocol!
