The State of Web3 Support Today: What Just Happened?

Duration: 00:05:04

Speaker: fungible taco

Type: Lightning Talk

Expertise: Beginner

Event: Devcon

Date: Nov 2024

One of the most common and painful experiences someone can have today is also one of the most fundamental concepts we tend to take for granted - transactions. Users who seek support for their issues lack the appropriate level of information to even understand what they were doing when it all went wrong. This talk will examine why core web3 experiences are still problematic and propose things to consider when building experiences for everyone that ranges from in app UX to community support tools.

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.

Product-Led Blockchain Development

As teams spin up new app-specific rollups and L2s, we've moved into an era of product-led blockchain development. In this model, developers are not only building the first product or client to leverage their protocol, but establishing what ‘product-defined blockspace’ means. In this talk, I go over the history of product-led growth, how it evolved to product-led protocol development in web3, and finally, what product-led blockchain development means in the context of app-specific rollups.

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
