Description
Integrate the Account Abstraction feature as proposed in EIP-2938 into Harmony's core protocol logic using the reference implementation in https://github.com/quilt/go-ethereum. Note this won't be a simple merging since Harmony's EVM implementation has minor difference from the ethereum's implementation.
Context
Harmony is a fully Ethereum-compatible blockchain which shares the core EVM logic and account model. Some of the limitation of Ethereum account model is also present in Harmony. EIP-2938 is proposed to improve the flexibility of the account model in Ethereum to allow a contract to be the top-level account that pays fees and starts transaction execution. This will enable many applications such as:
- Smart contract wallets that use signature verification other than ECDSA (eg. Schnorr, BLS, post-quantum…)
- Smart contract wallets that include features such as multisig verification or social recovery, reducing the highly prevalent risk of funds being lost or stolen
- Privacy-preserving systems like tornado.cash
- Attempts to improve gas efficiency of DeFi protocols by preventing transactions that don’t satisfy high-level conditions (eg. existence of a matching order) from being included on chain
- Users being able to pay for transaction fees in a token other than ETH (eg. by converting that token into the ETH needed for fees inside the transaction in real-time)
Acceptance Criteria
Reference
- Paradigm Research: How does Optimism's Rollup really work? Account Abstraction
- @lightclients: Ethereum wallets may be getting a significant upgrade soon. With the proposed change, EOAs will immediately be able to send batch txs, expiring txs, unordered txs, and more.
- Near's Implicit Accounts: Similar to Bitcoin/Ethereum accounts. They allow you to reserve an account ID before it's created by generating a ED25519 key-pair locally. This key-pair has a public key that maps to 64 character hex representation which becomes the account ID.
