Overview

expand.network provides Account abstraction capabilities.

What is Account Abstraction?

Regular ways of keeping your digital stuff safe, like browser extensions, seed phrases, and wallets, can be a hassle. But the idea is to make using Web3 super easy so regular folks can use it without realizing they are.

With the current Ethereum architecture, users sign transactions and pay gas fees from their externally owned accounts (EOAs). Account abstraction proposes a more flexible system where these responsibilities can be offloaded or changed to allow more varied transaction models.

Account Abstraction lets computer whizzes create special "smart accounts" or flexible wallets. It does this by changing who's in charge of saying "yes" to money moves. Instead of wallets doing it, smart accounts take over. This means these accounts can do more than just move money around. They can also do fancy things like running computer code, triggering events, and managing how things change on the internet money system. Cool, right?

The following functions are implemented considering the Account Abstraction capabilities:-

Name	Type	Description
getsignaturemessage	Read	Get the signature message, which needs to be signed.
getuserops	Read	Get the user operation, which can be signed and sent to the bundler.
getpaymasterdata	Read	Get the paymaster data, that can be sent in the user operations.
senduserops	Write	Prepare the data, to send the bundle of user operations, to the bundler.
