Ethereum's growth necessitates an evolution in digital ownership, transitioning from externally owned accounts (EOAs) to smart accounts. This transition is not merely a technical upgrade but aims to improve accessibility and security. Smart accounts offer flexibility, programmability, and unlock benefits such as multi-signature capabilities, hybrid custody, and better user experiences. While challenges exist, Layer 2 solutions and proposals like EIP-3074 and EIP-5003 pave the way forward. The mission is to accelerate this transition through battle-tested, open-source, and modular smart account infrastructure, bringing the benefits of smart accounts to Ethereum users and developers.
