From MPC Wallets to Smart Contract Accounts
Duration: 00:08:57
Speaker: Phuc Thai
Type: Lightning Talk
Expertise: Intermediate
Event: Devcon
Date: Nov 2024
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.

Butterfly Effects + Paradoxes of Account Abstraction in DeFi
In this session, we’ll dive into the transformative potential of account abstraction in shaping the future of DeFi, exploring both its cascading impacts and inherent paradoxes. By pushing the boundaries of accessibility, onboarding, and wallet capabilities—such as multi-sig, social recovery, custom modules, transaction batching, and advanced transaction logic (ERC-7579)—account abstraction opens up new possibilities for collaborative DeFi, cross-chain interoperability, and enhanced composability

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.

Bringing web2 users onchain: Picnic’s case study
Account abstraction had mixed success so far. Some specific purpose apps have been getting great usage, but there is still little economic value being transacted using account abstraction and very low repeat usage. By building Picnic, we discovered that account abstraction is currently much better suited to bring web2 users onchain than to cater for crypto natives. We'll share our learnings from the trenches and offer builders a fresh perspective on how to accelerate adoption.

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.

Building Consumer Facing Interfaces for Trust in Supply Chains
Provenance is building a platform to make consumer product supply chains more transparent. Taking advantage of Ethereum and IPFS, we’ve been iterating through a number of pilots in different industries, from organic bacon to fair-trade coconuts to enable a simple shared and trusted way to share the proven claims behind our products e.g. organic or proof of payment of fair wages, and link that to the flow of batches of product. Throughout this journey, we have learnt a lot about industry needs, working with both small and large retailers and brands. We’ve also forged partnerships with sustainability standards e.g Soil Association organic and other data systems that we can connect to enable verification of claims and inputs for our Ethereum based app e.g. Sourcemap. User centred design is core to the work at Provenance – exploring how we can make blockchain backed data appear differently on the frontend and provide accessible links to inspect the chain. As a social enterprise largely built through grant funding and with the support of academia we are keen to share our learnings with the developer community and gauge interest in forming a group around the development of blockchain backed interfaces for trusted data sets.

Layer2 Design Patterns - (enhanced from previous submission #1251)
Continuing previous research I’m interviewing all Layer2 solution providers, exploring current solutions, their problems, the UX patterns and user-research being done. The interviews are focused on extracting knowledge from the companies own user-research, if available: only a few of these projects have actually launched and have real users and even less have performed real user-research. The only company I’m partially affiliated with, Abridged, will launch 7 apps by EthBerlin and there are 13 more launching in September. For once Layer2 tech allows to have direct user contact since most flows ask for user emails.I hope there will be enough users to gather some data which I’d like to share at Devcon, although at this time I can’t guarantee it. Even so, this talk will allow viewers to quickly learn about all Layer2 UX patterns in one session, learning about the differences between the UX mechanics of payment channels, Plasma, (Generalized) State Channels, maybe sidechains, their pros-and-cons, how users enter and exit these systems, how and what they understand about decentralization, what are the open design problems of the space, and accelerating their knowledge of Layer2 solutions which hold the promise to onboard real users onto the decentralized web

The UX challenges to build on top of a light client
In the past year, we have been building Fether, a wallet based on a light client. Although the connection to a node is a fundamental part of building a DApp, it is often considered secondary as connection can be achieved for free using a 3rd party node. We will present the UX patterns that we have developed in Fether to allow for a great UX, without necessarily have access to a full node.
