Bringing Ethereum to 1B Telegram Users
Learn how we use account abstraction to build an invisible wallet for 1 billion Telegram users. We will share our methods and learnings, showing how users and dapp developers will soon seamlessly interact with Ethereum, enjoying a smooth experience without ever realizing they are using a wallet. Features like biometric authentication will enhance user experience, while session keys make transactions invisible, ensuring secure and effortless interactions.
The Wallet and UX Stack to Build Web3 Applications for the Masses
In this talk I will give an overview of how wallet infrastructure and the relationship between wallets and dapps have evolved over the past 5 years. And give a layer-by-layer breakdown of the modern wallet stack from signers to smart account modules, how each component contributes to a UX unlock on Ethereum/L2s, and how application developers can use them today. We will also touch on pertinent ongoing EIPs such as 7702 (deploy code for EOAs), and 7715 (permissions).
Who needs a wallet anyway?
This talk confronts the community’s obsession with decentralization purity at the cost of usability. This session explores how to hide the complexities of crypto, enabling seamless integration for users who may not even realize they are using a wallet. We’ll cover simplifying user interactions, making wallets function invisibly, maintaining benefits like permissionless innovation, managing thousands of wallets, and real-world applications. It’s time to push for real, user-friendly innovation.
Achieving Chain Abstraction through Transaction Orchestration
Achieving chain abstracted experiences will require the ability to execute multiple transactions across multiple blockchains as a single "action", ideally with a single signature used for permissioning. In this talk I'll explore the concepts of transaction orchestration and single-signature, multi-chain permissioning. I will present what are the benefits, how to create such systems and what are the drawbacks (e.g. soft atomicity, stale permissions, etc...)
Building with Intention: Achieving System Qualities through Design Choices
Technical and design decisions should be viewed as means to achieving broader system qualities rather than ends in themselves. This talk reorients our focus on the underlying goals of these decisions, exploring why we build the way we do, what we aim to achieve, and whether there are better ways to reach comparable outcomes. Through examples and case studies, attendees will learn to critically evaluate their design choices and understand the broader implications of their technical strategies.
The Chain Abstraction Master Plan
Chain abstraction is vital for Ethereum’s future competitiveness and interoperability. This talk will dive into why Ethereum apps need chain abstraction to avoid fragmentation and ensure open, trustless, and modular systems. We’ll explore approaches to abstraction, the importance of open standards, and a roadmap for upgrading the ecosystem’s core infrastructure—spanning JSON-RPC API improvements, resource locks, and intent settlement—to unlock new layers of usability and decentralization.
Web3 User Research 101
Everything you’ve wanted to know about talking to users in web3 and were too afraid to ask! This workshop will give participants a crash course in user research and UX first principles, then guide them through the process of conducting a research project from start to finish - with a focus on web3 users specifically.
ERC-4337: Adoption Analysis
Since the EntryPoint contract was deployed, millions of smart accounts have been created and UserOps submitted, via hundreds of exciting projects in the space. Join us as we look at the interesting trends onchain and the unique challenges and exciting opportunities faced by teams building in the space
Speedrunning chain abstraction EIPs
We look at different EIPs in pipeline across the CAKE stack and how they relate to chain abstraction.
Wallet Infra Improvements, and Building Apps for the Next Generation
In this talk I go over infrastructure innovations that are happening in the space right now, how they’re going to be how we bring the next wave of users into crypto, and why right now is the best time to build a consumer app in this space.
