Entries Due for BASE Prop House – Based Accounts

ERC 4337 and account abstraction hold promise for improving onchain user experiences, and we are excited to see them come to Base. We have partnered with a number of account abstraction infra providers for Base Goerli + Mainnet support, including Stackup, Zerodev, Biconomy, Pimlico and Gelato + Safe.

Example Projects
– Build a paymaster that gives free transactions based on certain criteria, e.g. owning a certain NFT.
– Build a smart contract wallet with new or improved features, e.g. work with Coinbase Wallet-as-a-Service to provide web2 auth experience for onchain interactions, or to serve as a recovery key or extra signer
– Build a dapp or interface that makes use of account abstraction to provide a user-friendly experience.
– Improve the ecosystem with, for example, an EIP defining a new wallet RPC that works for account abstraction wallets.

Submission Criteria
– This is intended to be retroactive funding: please submit completed work and suggest how you might continue to add or improve on your work
– Work must be deployed on or connected to Base and onchain summer in some way.
– We prefer work that is open source and free for others to use.
– Must be ERC 4337/Account Abstraction related.
– Must be deployed to or working with Base.
