Alchemy Builders is counting down to the Ethereum Pectra upgrade, which is 14 days away and includes 11 EIPs. The main focus is EIP-7702, which promises to significantly improve the poor user experience of current Externally Owned Accounts (EOAs) by enabling web2-like onboarding and transaction signing.

We all know EOA wallet UX sucks. If you need a reminder, it looks something like this -
- Download extension and login
- Panic about where you’re gonna store your seed phrase
- Buy or swap to the native token of the chain you want to interact with
- Approve signature for every transaction
- Pay gas fees for every transaction
With Ethereum Pectra, this is all going away. Every wallet has a way to get users onboarded and transacting onchain with web2-like UX.
