Onchain UX is becoming way too fragmented.

Multiple wallets across multiple networks with multiple tokens is a nightmare to handle.

Feels like the only logical outcome for new users is to have a unique account and smart wallet for every app.

Connecting with a cross-platform EOA will be for power users.

Problem is that many people don’t realize you have a unique address across different chains resulting in loss of funds. 

I.e. send your mainnet address on accident when hoping to receive on OP.

I would expect most users to be comfortable associating one address per app they use (assuming they use it a lot)

Need to start moving toward network-specific address formats imo. Can't have the same address across all networks in all cases, so may as well embrace the opposite.

The "eth:0xd8da..." format that Safe uses is good enough and is more Lindy than any alternative, so... maybe just use that more?

web3 UX is getting worse and I really hope it’s a “one step back, two steps forward” type thing but I struggle to see the huge forward steps tbh

I definitely think what @rainbowdotme is up to with their RainbowKit & their upcoming Mini Wallets configuration (their take on embedded wallets) is certainly a step in the right direction.

I do agree though, the fragmentation is a horrid user experience for anyone & an absolute nightmare for new users.

It’s a win for privacy too if users have a different address for each app.

The only pain then becomes funding each address and taxes. And the entire idea of onchain credentials and reputation seems to fall apart.

This has always been the Achilles heel of web3. It's also the biggest feature. This is why it's always been DOA IMO

Definitely a lot of increasing fragmentation at an alarming rate, one of the things I’m keen on is UX that actually abstracts away networks themselves to end users.
