Ethereum Account Abstraction

quick demo of what i've been working on @base with the smart wallet team over the past few weeks: *automatic* sub accounts

get rid of wallet confirmation popups in your app without having to worry about funding flows with 4 lines of code

available on base sepolia in our sdk for now. docs in replies

yep that's the idea. a malicious app only has access to as much as the spend limit permits. in the demo it's like $5/day

and you can later go and revoke spend permissions at https://keys-dev.coinbase.com/settings/permissions if you no longer trust the app

by the time this launches on mainnet you'll be able to see all the apps you have sub accounts with and you'll be able to pull the funds back into your global account all in one place

This is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Such great work. Love sub-accounts. Super convenient. Do sub-accounts also solve security issues associated with potentially suspicious connections, because even if your sub-account gets rugged it's ring-fenced to the max draw down from your global account?

@stephancill, I was excited to build more on Base using all the resources it provides, including the Coinbase Wallet. However, I’m not sure if you’ve noticed. Coinbase services are blocked in my region for no clear reason. This even affects basic access, like using the Coinbase Wallet extension.

Super exciting! Love how this simplifies the user experience by removing wallet confirmation popups while handling funding flows seamlessly.
