A Cross-Application Smart Wallet for Starknet
Starknet Global Wallet simplifies user onboarding and interaction with decentralized applications (dApps) by providing a unified, secure, and user-friendly smart contract wallet experience. Drawing inspiration from Argent's security and user experience focus and Abstract Global Wallet's cross-application connectivity, Starknet Global Wallet aims to bridge the gap between Web2 familiarity and Web3 accessibility.
Starknet Global Wallet is a smart contract wallet built on Starknet that enables users to seamlessly connect and interact with any Starknet dApp. It leverages familiar Web2 technologies like OAuth and social logins to drastically reduce the friction traditionally associated with Web3 onboarding. Users can create a Starknet Global Wallet by just connecting to any dapp, using their existing Google, Apple, or other social accounts.
Key Features:
-
Simplified Onboarding: Create a Starknet wallet using familiar Web2 authentication methods (OAuth, social logins). No need to manage complex seed phrases or private keys directly. Key management is handled securely behind the scenes.
-
Cross-Application Connectivity: Connect to any Starknet dApp with your Starknet Global Wallet. No more switching between wallets or managing multiple accounts. One wallet grants access to the entire Starknet ecosystem.
-
Enhanced Security: Inspired by Argent's security model, Starknet Global Wallet prioritizes user safety. Features like transaction simulation, multi-signature support (future implementation), and fraud detection mechanisms will be explored to protect user funds.
-
User-Friendly Interface: Starknet Global Wallet offers a clean and intuitive interface, making it easy for users of all technical backgrounds to manage their assets and interact with dApps.
-
Gas Abstraction: Explore options for gas abstraction to further simplify the user experience. Potentially allow users to pay gas fees in stablecoins or even fiat currency (via integrations).
-
Developer-Friendly SDK: A comprehensive SDK will be provided to enable developers to easily integrate Starknet Global Wallet into their dApps.
Starknet Global Wallet will utilize smart contracts written in Cairo and deployed on the Starknet network. The frontend will be built using a modern JavaScript framework (e.g., React, Vue) and will interact with the Starknet network through a dedicated library (e.g., starknet.js). The backend will handle user authentication and manage the connection between the frontend and the Starknet network.
(soon)
- Phase 1: Core Wallet Functionality: Smart contract development, basic UI, social login integration.
- Phase 2: Cross-Application Connectivity: SDK development, dApp integration examples.
- Phase 3: Enhanced Security Features: Transaction simulation, multi-sig support.
- Phase 4: Gas Abstraction: Explore and implement gas abstraction mechanisms.
- Key Management: Explore secure key management solutions, potentially leveraging MPC (Multi-Party Computation) or other advanced techniques. Consider integrating hardware wallet support.
- Recovery Mechanisms: Implement robust account recovery mechanisms in case of lost devices or compromised accounts. Social recovery is a strong option.
- Audits: Prioritize security audits to ensure the safety of user funds. Transparency is key.
- Scalability: Design the wallet with scalability in mind to handle future growth of the Starknet ecosystem.
- Internationalization: Plan for internationalization (i18n) from the start to make the wallet accessible to a global audience.
