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
Building a Cross-Chain DEX with Chain Abstraction & Intents
In a multi-chain world, creating a user-friendly DEX is challenging. This talk explores how a DEX can leverage intents and chain abstraction to offer seamless cross-chain trading. We'll discuss the implementation of ERC7683 and integration with Across Protocol to enable trading across multiple chains.
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.
Speedrunning chain abstraction EIPs
We look at different EIPs in pipeline across the CAKE stack and how they relate to chain abstraction.
Lighthouse: Introduction to Siren
Sigma Prime would like to introduce Lighthouse's official user interface called Siren. Siren was made to monitor performance, display key metrics and help make lighthouse validator management easy. Siren comes with built in metrics, logging, and other features users will find useful when updating their validator.
Postcards from the cutting edge of Gas research: what you don’t know can hurt you & your users
In July of 2024, we shared original research describing how the interaction between privately transmitted transactions and altruistic self-built blocks unexpectedly increase Base Fee volatility (see references below). We also warned that this effect would likely get more pronounced as private transaction share continues to grow. In this session we will revisit our original findings but with 4 months of additional data and deeper investigative research. Has gas price volatility increased as predi
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.
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 Rise of AI in Web3 Development UX
This talk explores the intersection of artificial intelligence and Web3 technologies, highlighting how AI can enhance the development of decentralized applications and blockchain ecosystems. The presentation will provide practical examples, code snippets, and insights into Web3 AI through the lens of the recent RemixAI integration into the Remix toolset. Attendees will gain valuable knowledge on leveraging AI to build more robust, intelligent, and user-friendly decentralized applications.
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.
