Embedded wallet on Warpcast;  Rolled out to top 1000 users so far but they'll be rolling it out further over the next couple weeks

Makes it easy to make complete transactions right on the timeline which is pretty cool

is it from scratch I hope not. 

@0xsmallbrain it’s privy embedded wallet with a customer provider for one shard which it connected to the wc recovery account or something like that. The terminology I’m still tripping on. They create an onHub verification & set it as your primary account in wc so that social context art mention can be silky smooth.

TIL it's privy (do you have a source?)

it feels like it has more distinctive features than a white-labelled embedded wallet, which is what I'm used to seeing from other projects. But it certainly could be.

I think the ENS kerfuffle is definitely part of what's going on, too. If you can send to a Farcaster id rather than an ENS, that's a kind of unlock. Although somewhere in between are the Base names.

Will find the thread - or will try for 2 mins😜 It was horse or deo commenting deep in dwr thread iirc

Warpcast

private key is shamir sharded on your device into 3 shards, any 2 of which can reconstruct the PK

1 shard remains on the device
1 shard is encrypted by a key that warpcast holds (recovery shard)
1 shard is encrypted by a key that Privy holds (auth shard)

all encryption also happens on your client

effectively the recovery and auth shards are both accessible by your custody address but via authing with two separate service providers

it’d take two separate breaches of warpcast and privy to compromise key material 

the reasons for doing this instead of  simple EOA are 
1) users won’t lose access to their funds bc it inherits the Farcaster recovery system since 2/3 can be accessed via SIWF (all without needing the user to backup anything themselves)
2) users can seamlessly access their wallet on any device (i.e. web) without needing to manually move a seed phase around in a reasonably secure way

Here you go @artlu

hmm, so no way ever to export private key?

I mean, yeah I understand the tradeoffs and the space they are exploring. It's cool.

But it makes it even more critical to trust that they will never block you from your funds. The way I read it, Privy can't stop Warpcast from blocking your access. And that's the bargain you make, for a recovery process that in many ways is more secure than private keys.

1. Export is coming

2. You don't have to use the wallet; we allow you to use Rainbow or CBW via MWP
