Ethereum's upcoming 'Hogata' hard fork in 2027 will feature 'frame transactions,' a significant advancement in account abstraction. This feature will allow for programmable smart wallets, enabling users to pay gas fees in various tokens, have applications sponsor gas, use passkeys for sign-ins, and batch transactions. A key driver for this prioritization is the need to replace current signatures with quantum-resistant ones by 2029.
“And frame transactions are going to be a headliner, a feature of that Hogata hard fork.”
“Account abstraction is a smart wallet. It's actually kind of like hard to explain because it's a, It's conceptually very different. It is an alternative to externally owned accounts.”
“The signatures in Ethereum are not quantum secure. Those have to be replaced. Ethereum also, the EF came out this week and said by 2029, we want to have the entire Ethereum stack. quantum secure.”
