I certainly am getting tired on needing to create a new wallet to use certain apps. I refuse to do it. Call me crazy but web3 should not involve always making a new wallet, this is just insanity. 🫠 What do the buildoors think? Are you ok with constantly forcing people to create new wallets? Are you a fan of Rodeo forcing people to deposit money onto their site? Isn't that really NOT how crypto is supposed to work? I'm just simple minded, so please explain like i am 5. ✌️ ❤️

Worth addressing - Why do I need another wallet to use [any app]?

Answer: 

Mobile is where people spend most of their time. You have to solve for mobile.

When you transact on mobile today, it requires kicking up a FULL NEW APP to transact. That hand off fails 50% of the time.

The only way to (currently) solve this is a smart wallet, so that you can have one tap transactions.

We as builders don’t want you to have a new, empty wallet. It’s got no liquidity. We’d love for you to use all the liquidity in your existing wallet.

But the wallet experience is SO BAD (we’ve gotten used to it in crypto, but others won’t) that it’s less total friction to just set up a new wallet. Every transaction thereafter feels like butter.

I tried to convince Android and Chrome teams to integrate wallets to have a better and seamless experience across Android and Chrome. Some PMs were very interested, then FTX happened, ChatGPT happened and all those efforts were abandoned.
They might not have happened anyway even with the whole shift to AI.
