Zeal: The Day-to-Day Crypto Wallet for EVM Chains - Hannes Graah
Manage episode 435784634 series 2542482
Self-custodial wallets often represent the first point of contact for crypto users that venture away from centralised exchanges. As a result, their security and user experience should be paramount. This often explained Metamask’s first mover advantage and the users’ reluctance to change. However, as infrastructure evolves, new wallets are equipped from the get-go with features that are designed for normie adoption, such as: account abstraction, gas fee abstraction, easier on- and off-ramp, etc. Zeal was envisioned as a day-to-day wallet solution, allowing users true freedom to transact, both on-chain, as well as off-chain (i.e. real world spendings).
Topics covered in this episode:
- Hannes’ background
- Existing wallet solutions and Zeal’s userbase
- Wallet UX, account abstraction and passkeys
- Security assumptions and passkey recovery
- Smart contract interactions
- Zeal’s mobile-first focus
- IBAN & Gnosis Pay integrations
- Capturing market share
- Banking the unbanked
- Gas fees
- Cross-chain interoperability
- DeFi & staking
- Monetisation
