Usability changes in a post-EOA world
Duration: 00:24:03
Speaker: Cindy, GregTheGreek
Type: Talk
Expertise: Intermediate
Event: Devcon
Date: Nov 2024
The wallet world has evolved to embrace contract accounts (4337 and 7702), app-owned wallets, session keys (CAIP-25), and permissions controls (7715). How might we on the app layer design and build upon these new account types? In this talk, we will demonstrate the possibilities for novel user flows given these new account standards, compare how these new standards can introduce pitfalls, and provide best practices on how to design for app layer in a post-7702 world.

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.

"My mother will not use it"
In this Talk, I want to cover the different mindsets designers need to improve and optimize the work for web3. If we're going to change the way we interact with each other and aim to profoundly improve society with this technology, we can't think and use the same methodologies. We will cover topics such as the target audience (the title of the Talk), testing, the learning curve, web2 to web3, and more.

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.

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.

Gnosis Safe - Make dealing with crypto a less scary thing
The Safe is the first smart contract based multi-signature wallet targeting mobile users. Using smart contracts as proxies between users and dApps opens the door for many usability and security improvements. New access control schemes can be implemented to allow for 2FA and recovery mechanisms making private key management redundant. Transactions can be sent via relay services, which can be paid in any kind of token. Users won't need Ether anymore to interact with the Ethereum network. Usability and costs for dApps can be improved by batching transactions together making user flows simpler and more intuitive. The presentation will give a detailed overview about the Safe implementation of the different features and how they can be used for future dApp development.More information and a download to the testnet beta can be found here: https://blog.gnosis.pm/announcing-the-gnosis-safe-beta-personal-edition-19a69a4453e8

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.

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
