Smart wallets and account abstraction are handy features that are being used to their full potential. But they're still far from ubiquitous or even standardized.

An extension of the smart wallet/account abstraction paradigm is using ZKPs for wallets.
These are called ZK accounts: execution of the account logic is proved offchain and verified onchain.

Accounts basically become zk-rollups.

Hylé ships zk accounts natively, and with delayed proving you don't even need to think about proofs!
