Ethereum Pectra Countdown: EIP-7702 Explained

Summary

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. This upgrade is crucial as it aims to make interacting with Ethereum much smoother for users.

The big one? EIP-7702.

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.
