Founders

genuinely curious why so many project founders choose embedded wallets v. connect. 

as a user it feels like death by a thousand paper cuts.

Because:

1. Embedded wallets work reliably on mobile.

The issue is the mobile operating systems have poor support for switching between apps, especially if it requires multiple rounds.

2. Most people in the world don’t have a wallet

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

1. Power users already have a wallet they want to use

For the most part, these power users don't use apps. And for the power users who use apps, most are fine using the better UX.

Thus, why the market is the way it is.

problem is that its not actually better longterm, but worse ("death by a thousand cuts"). embedded wallets create more problems than they solve. users are realizing this

It's how web2 works and has scaled just fine

😂 whats the point of "web3" then? why use wallets at all

wdym? what does interoperability and composability have to do with the problem of fragmented identity/capital that embedded wallets are creating?

because the blockchains are interoperable and composable

the wallets were always going to be just apps
