Smart Accounts
Authorizations
Transactions
The active account metrics track four types of onchain action:
A smart contract wallet AKA smart account is a customizable Ethereum account. Smart accounts can be programmed with features like
* Batched transactions: Multiple actions, such as approving and swapping on a DEX, can be combined into one transaction.
* Gas fee abstraction: Users can transact without having to pay gas fees in the native token.
Regular EOA wallets upgrade to EIP-7702 smart accounts by authorizing a contract. The upgraded wallet has a "delegation indicator" that points to the authorized contract. When a transaction is sent to the EOA, it executes the code of the authorized contract.
To downgrade back to a regular EOA, the wallet authorizes the burn address.
