ERC-4337 isn't dead! The UX is being upgraded with new developments like EIP-7702, which makes it easier to integrate Externally Owned Account (EOAs) and enhances the overall experience for Ethereum users. Dive into the 🧵 to learn more! 1/5
At its core, EIP-7702 seeks to elevate the UX of traditional wallets by unlocking features typically exclusive to smart contracts. It allows an Externally Owned Account (EOA) to temporarily function as a smart contract for a transaction. 2/5
EIP-7702 introduces a new transaction type with a `contract_code` field, allowing EOAs to temporarily adopt smart contract functionality for specific transactions. This eliminates the need for new opcodes and ensures seamless compatibility with ERC-4337. 3/5
The implementation of EIP-7702 will open doors for features like tx batching (combining multiple tx into one), gas sponsorship (allowing one user to cover gas costs for another), and account privilege de-escalation (setting specific permissions for different types of tx). 4/5
