description: "Learn about onchain accounts, from traditional EOAs using private keys to modern Smart Wallets with passkeys, and how Base's Smart Wallet SDK simplifies integration."
---

Onchain accounts, often called "wallets", are the starting point for any onchain interaction. Unlike traditional accounts that store credentials in a database, onchain accounts authenticate and authorize transactions on the public network with credentials held by the user. The original onchain accounts (EOA's) use private keys backed up by a sequence of 24 random words. Recently, with the introduction of modern accounts like Smart Wallet, the credentials are Passkeys which provide improved security and recoverability. This sub-section covers these two main wallet types, the differences in user experience and security, and how Base's Smart Wallet SDK makes them easier to integrate.
