Chain abstraction? But I want to know where my tokens are

As a space, we face a big problem: how should we think about where assets live. Is Eth different from oEth or aEth. Does it matter where Circle prints your USDC? Should chains delegated to the kind of infra that Google Cloud or AWS is today? Clearly, the fragmentations of USDC/USDT/xDAI and then all the L2s creates horrible UX. However, the underlying assets are different things and the chains they live on have completely different security guarantees. Let's fix this!

Chain abstraction is risk abstraction
We'll explore the concept of chain abstraction, examine various approaches to it, delve into the associated risks for users, and define what abstraction should really be.

Activation in crypto -- how crypto apps go mainstream!
In this talk, I'll break down patterns I am seeing having helped onboard 10M+ users to crypto apps. From natives to newcomers, what are the factors that lead to onchain activity and sticky usage in consumer apps. I'll work through the few things that native apps do to onboard mainstream users onchain and how this impacts protocol development moving forward.

Chain-abstracted Smart Accounts -- How to Build Amazing Web3 UX in 2024
Chain abstraction (CA) and account abstraction (AA) have been two of the hottest topics in Web3, but few people know how to use them together. In this talk, I will explain how developers can build amazing Web3 experiences by combining AA with CA in the form of "chain-abstracted smart accounts" -- smart accounts that can spend their balances on any chain without bridging.

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

Putting Intents and Users Together
Intents represent a new approach to Web3 interactions. However, the transition from the existing structure to an intent-centric space remains uncertain unless we maintain user familiarity. We conducted experiments on user experience for intents and tested them with a focus group. This talk will explore how we can approach intents in a way that users will adopt more readily by leveraging the latest standards and EIPs, including EIP-7702, ERC-4337, ERC-7579, and ERC-7715.

The End Game Wallet: When Does Abstraction Go Too Far?
Chain abstraction has taken the front seat. As innovations continue, it's becoming increasingly stark that we will eventually approach a world where third-party solvers fulfill most transactions. The core protocol is also changing to cater to further abstractions even at the validator level. The question remains, how far are we willing to go in the name of efficiency, and optimizations, to which a user can't use Ethereum without third parties?

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.

From MPC Wallets to Smart Contract Accounts
The proposal outlines a path for the mass adoption of smart contract accounts by using MPC wallet as a transitional solution. Users can start their web3 journey by using MPC wallets which can be done via social login. Later, users can turn the MPC wallets into smart contract wallets using EIP-7702, enhancing the user experience with feature-rich options while maintaining the security benefits of MPC wallets to protect the EOA private key.

Open challenges in Mini-apps and Frames
There are a number of open challenges we've run into with trying to make interoperable mini-apps work at Open Frames. I'll run through some of them and what I think it'll take to get great UX via Mini-apps.
