Learn about how ERC-7710 can bring readable permissions between wallets, dapps, mini-dapps, AI agents, whatever! Superpowered by EIP-7702, and enabling ERC-7715, we dug into some important topics about the gap in web3 usability in this conversation.

Rehearsal s2e1: Profoundly moving intro & premise, kinda got hijacked into some superficial individual-quirk mocking, imo. Something that came to mind: Many sensors on a plane already include "triple redundancy" so there can be a tie breaker. Why not also for pilots? Also, that power imbalance between pilot & 1st officer is obviously ruinous.

EIP-7702 makes eth accounts able to do anything a smart account can do. How will dapps interact with the smartest accounts? I think this is a good guess, and you can try it now, ahead of 7702:

One big advantage of wc over basically all the incumbent social media is amplifying people who haven't talked in a while. The "keep your streak going" incentive that dominates most creates some really perverse patterns, and I hope that people appreciate more meaningful content that comes from this.

New MM Dev Cookoff just started! In this hackathon, devs have an opportunity to try out our erc-7715 smart permissions request, get a head start using our new Delegator🐊 smart account as an embedded wallet, start discovering the new things it makes possible, 🧙‍♂️🪄 and help shape this new stack. https://www.hackquest.io/hackathons/MetaMask-Delegation-Toolkit-DTK-Dev-Cook-Off

Going to share a little update related to my security incident Monday. Going to keep it terse for now, because I still have work to do, to fully put my mind at ease, but a few things I wanted to get out there for others, and I now have secured danfinlay.com to a degree where I no longer feel threatened by some self righteous sysadmins.

Ok, well I've rotated my FC signer here. I *should* be rid of co-residents in this account for the moment. Thanks to the FC team for helping me speed through the recovery process despite some complications. This is an extremely concerning security incident to me, and I'll be doing my best to identify how it happened.

Deleting my initial groggy sign-on where I shame people for following screenshots. It sounds like my warpcast account posted some memecoin this morning. Still investigating how. I'm really sorry if you were taken by that, I'll do my best to figure out what happened. https://warpcast.com/danfinlay/0x2f2a2e3b

Hi, just woke up here, I currently have Flu-A. People are saying there was a verifiable FC post from my account. Any WC protocol sleuths who can help me identify the exact signer that sent it (would sure be nice if these were device linked), I'd appreciate it.

My friend called MJF "The best heel in wrestling", and he's a New York Jewish boy?! And he got the crowd angrily chanting "Santa" at him?!?!?! Incredible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSVh-_kXhhA&themeRefresh=1

Evm nerds unite: Reduce the cost to deploy a new SCA by up to 20x by solving this one weird puzzle!

Ok, weird hackenstein way to reduce the cost to deploy a new smart contract: Use EIP-7702 AUTH instead of deploying a smart contract using Nick's Method. Nick's Method allows an AUTH from a key that doesn't exist. That means 7702 provides an EVM-layer proxy contract alternative at around 1/10th the cost.

I've been signed out of my twitter account on all devices. My password has been changed, and I am not receiving password reset emails. No unusual activity from the account yet, but I'm concerned what it may lead to. Don't believe anything that account says until this + my Bluesky account says otherwise. https://bsky.app/profile/danfinlay.com

There's no excuse to leave critical JS infrastructure this vulnerable to supply chain attacks, thanks to LavaMoat from @metamask. Hasn't been for a few years, but if it takes a big hack to get you to think longer term, then I recommend you seize the opportunity: https://github.com/LavaMoat/LavaMoat

Andreesen sure wants listeners to believe Bluesky is completely homogenous. There is definitely a large cluster of what he describes, but it sure isn’t one culture.
