good real-world example of how embedded wallets break identity

web3 becoming web2 but instead of email/passwords its now app-specific wallets (identities)

to fix, 1) devs must implement one-to-many identity mapping in thier app and, 2) users need to do the work of mapping (which they wont) *in every web3 app they use*

is this really a better ux than pasting a seed phrase in a pw manager? is this progress? 

given lack of web3 consumer growth the market says no

yeah directionally agree with you, it’s just a different set of tradeoffs rather than better/worse.

though also worth noting that you can’t put seed phrases in password managers.

if the market is penalizing you with low/slow/no consumer growth then idk i think "worse" might be a fair assessment

haha fair

and re: password managers, I’m aware that it’s possible. just not a good idea if you have any meaningful amount of assets stored in those wallet(s).

I think about people and design.
I love RC: /rearmotor

ideally you never want a seed phrase to be inputted or stored on an internet-connected device

I use bitwarden secure notes for seed phrases
