The UX problem in Web 3.0 and GameFi has no one-size-fits-all solution. It is a sophisticated and interconnected issue otherwise, we would have seen it solved many years ago.
Indeed, Ethereum has done a great job in lowering its transaction fees and increasing throughput. Similarly, layer-two solutions introduced greater and cheaper scalability to the system.
The UX, however, is still a tough entry barrier, and several unexpectedly popular DApps (decentralized applications) can still impose a huge workload on crypto networks.
The past years brought little change now is the right time to focus on the overall UX improvement, and new blockchain technologies like ‘account abstraction’ can help.
Account abstraction the Ethereum UX revolution
Imagine an average user attracted to a new viral DApp. They excitedly download the app to try the latest trend. Oh, they can’t do it just yet hey need a wallet first.
They may have heard about MetaMask, so that’s the low-hanging fruit.
Now, the wallet is there, but the majority of users have some sort of an upfront cost this is simply their business model, an initial investment.
After all, isn’t our user used to small in-app purchases virtually everywhere else?
Still, you can’t buy tokens directly in a wallet, so most of the time they’ll head straight to whatever centralized exchange is the most popular in their region.
They fill in their passport info, residency address and a utility bill to prove it, and tax ID number, and submit a photo old on, the resolution is too low. And this one is too oversaturated. And this is way too shadowy.
Nice! It should only take the exchange’s KYC (know your customer) team a day or two to verify their identity. ‘The photo doesn’t match the photo on your passport.’ They have to resubmit.
Anticipation breeds appetite, and our user happily logs into the app, connects the wallet, and attempts to make their first balance refill nly to find out that the wanted token’s protocol is not supported by the exchange they’ve chosen.
They need to get used to this feeling in the unlikely situation that such a user returns to the app, they will have to keep track of gas quotes, Ethereum balance for gas fees, native token balance for in-app payments and a stablecoin account to hedge their earnings against market volatility.
Oh, and don’t forget to store the seed phrase otherwise, all the…
