Yoav talking about AA at EthSingapore. Really important discussion on why AA is NOT "just meta-transactions", and why the extra steps that ERC-4337 takes compared to more naive approaches are necessary if you care about decentralization.

Paymasters for EOAs I feel like would give us 80% of the power. All of the bullet points on the slides could be describing a 4337 relayer. What am I missing?

At least right now with bundlers, there’s a standard for transactions. Soon there’ll be a open bundler network

Im still not convinced the step back is worth the trade off. Everyone agrees it's temporary until enshrined AA so it seems like a lot of throwaway work.

I don’t see it being enshrined anytime soon until there’s major take off on L2s and then on L1

Why? Imagine if we had put the effort into enshrinement instead of all this temporary, centralizing infra? We could be done.
