Brief Overview Deploying the nightfall wallet on the intranet would add another layer of security for organisations to access their funds deployed on the blockchain. An easy tool for them to deploy, monitor & keep a track of wallets would make a world of difference when it will come to auditing. People may leave or join the team in an organisation handling the on-chain payments. Giving the ability for admins to securely create/update/delete/transfer funds from wallets of people who will be le...

I recently started working on a chrome-extension wallet compatible with 4337, you can read more about it here. One of the challenges in creating a wallet is how to store private keys securely in the local storage of the browser. In this blog, I will be exploring how Metamask & Tally-ho wallet stores their private keys. I hope you and I both will learn during this exploration. If we want the data to be encrypted with a password & then stored, the best standard to use is AES-FCM. The crypto API...

Brief Overview With the advent of EIP 4337, I expect on-chain wallets & paymaster services will explode and help a large number of people get onboarded with web3. A lot of DAOs & old age companies would want to sponsor gas fees & want a smoother experience for their users. But deploying a Paymaster, and having a developer code the custom logic would be painful for every other organisation. This is where I feel, a service which would automatically deploy/manage & let organisations monitor the ...

GM Everyone! I have a couple of motivations to write this blog. Firstly, to help you understand what all work is pending for the wide adoption of EIP-4337. Secondly, tell you about how you can help in accelerating the process by contributing.The flow of a userOperation in EIP-4337Above is how EIP-4337 makes smart contract wallets a reality. We can start developing smart contract wallets, paymasters, etc compatible with EIP-4337 with a relayer service today. But for it to become the norm & com...

GM Everyone! As I discussed in the last article Future of your Ethereum wallets, wallets of the future will be smart contract wallets. A natural progressive question is: how will you move all your EOA (Externally owned accounts like Metamask) assets to the smart contract wallets (SCW)? Will you have to transfer all the assets one by one? This is not a plausible solution because this requires a transaction per asset (making it extremely expensive). At worst, some powers (like hard-coded owners...

Gm! I am super excited to share that I will be participating in the Ethereum Protocol Fellowship (EPF). This blog is my first update for the fellowship.What will I work on?We are moving closer towards the finalisation of EIP-4337. A lot of effort by the core team has been put into designing the contracts, mempool, DOS protections etc. But the team haven't had time to properly support UserOps through one of the browser extension wallets. In this cohort, I intend to work on making a user-f...

GM Everyone! We all want to know what is next in the web3 world. Today we will deep-diving into the future of Ethereum wallets & how it will change the experience for both developers & users. One word answer for what is coming next to Ethereum is Account Abstraction. It will change how we authorize transactions & interact with blockchains. The change will open the possibilities of having recovery wallets, username-passwords wallets, paying gas fees in tokens other than ETH, or getting gas fee...
