Lots happened at #ETHDenver, and one of the biggest highlights was the announcement of ERC-4337.

So, why is this idea resurfacing now, and why should you be keeping an eye on Abstract Account (AA)'s development?

Let's find out 🔍
In Sep '21, #Ethereum magicians proposed EIP-4337, inc. @VitalikButerin. 🪄

Today, ERC-4337 AA is live on mainnet.

Even better: devs were able to implement most desired functionality through a smart contract, instead of at Ethereum protocol level, accelerating the roadmap 🚀 Image
@VitalikButerin Why does ERC-4337 matter?

@kristofgazso, co-author of ERC-4337, noted that the biggest bottleneck in the encryption field is the difficulty for the public to use Ethereum apps.

Promoting ERC-4337 is expected to bring about changes in advance!

@VitalikButerin @kristofgazso What can AA do?

Account Abstraction allows flexible and personalized accounts for users.

This means features like 2FA, gas payments, and social wallet recovery can be implemented.

The possibilities are truly endless! 🌈
@VitalikButerin @kristofgazso Who is building with AA?

Companies like @safe and @stripe offer direct access to account abstraction integrations through their AA SDK.

Automated bill payments through pull payments are now possible.

@VitalikButerin @kristofgazso @safe @stripe Consumer-facing crypto apps will be a game-changer in 2023.

Implementing AA can significantly improve the user experience of these dApps, leading to wider adoption of crypto!

Are you building with AA? Let us know! 🤩

ZK-fever is spreading in the #blockchain community!

Let's catch you up on the latest developments in this blooming #ZKrollups ecosystem 🔥

0/6👇🧵
1/ Do you struggle with high gas fees & slow tx times on #Ethereum?

Fear not, because Ethereum CAN and is scaling up!

Instead of doing all tx by itself, Ethereum now has a blossoming #L2 ecosystem of fast & inexpensive off-chain execution environments to ramp up users. 📈 Image
2/ Popular L2s, like #ZKrollups, use zero-knowledge proofs (ZKP) to verify tx off-chain, allowing faster processing while keeping data secure.

ZKP uses cryptography to prove a statement w/o revealing extra info, which strengthens security & privacy in blockchain.

Example here👇🏻

Not long ago, the only approach to building #blockchains was a monolithic design where a single blockchain did EVERYTHING:

block creation, consensus, data storage, and smart contract execution...

This led to a blockchain trilemma.

Enter modular blockchains 🔦 Image
1/ In a monolithic blockchain, a single layer handles all 3 core functions: execution, consensus & data availability.

This approach poses a scalability trilemma.

(Note: Thanks to rollups & sharding, Ethereum 2.0 will be a modular blockchain.) Image
2/ Modular blockchains are set to bring a paradigm shift to blockchain design by breaking down blockchain networks into several pieces.
⬇️
They outsource one of the core responsibilities above and only specialize in Execution / Consensus / Data Availability. ImageImage

What happened:

ConsenSys updated its privacy policy, stating that it collects sensitive data of MetaMask users when using Infura as the default RPC provider.

Your privacy matters.

A thread on what you can do 👀👇🏻
Option 1: Keep using MetaMask.
Bypass Infura RPC, and switch to an alternative.

Our council @AlchemyPlatform is a great RPC option. ✅
@AlchemyPlatform How to add Alchemy RPC endpoints to MetaMask:

1. Create an account on Alchemy: alchemy.com/?a=991c4e82df
2. Login, create an API key on their dashboard

The MCap of top 8 gaming companies was worth ~$200 billion in May 2022.
6 of them are establishing their #web3 teams. The opportunities are real. And we're very early.

So, in the coming days, how should you evaluate a #gamefi project?

Learn this concept: GameFi Trilemma 🧵👇 Image
The #GameFi trilemma is composed of ● playability
● profitability
● accessibility.

The problem arises when games only can optimize two components at any given time. Image
Eg.

Web 2.0 games give up profitability for players.

Most Web 3.0 games have given up accessibility by charging a hefty price for NFTs.

And for each component in the trilemma, there are existing problems and we'd like to highlight some potential solutions. 💡
