SafeAuth Launch and the Unconventional Cross of MPC and AA
We are thrilled to be the official Wallet Partner at IBW’23. Announcing our latest partnership with Safe - SafeAuth uses both Account Abstraction and Multi-Party Computation (MPC) to create a wallet experience that is both secure, practical, and seamless for the user.
SafeAuth is an SDK that allows anyone to leverage Safe ecosystem’s existing user base. It makes AA wallets portable in any of the 190+ dApps within the ecosystem, therefore freeing the user’s assets from siloes and vendor lock-ins.
Web3Auth’s MPC infrastructure powers the creation of deterministic addresses that made this level of interoperability possible, as well as the convenient management of these AA wallets through the user’s social logins.
IBW’23: The Role of Account Abstraction in Expanding User Adoption
All the cofounders of Web3Auth, Biconomy, Halliday, and Leap Wallet sat together in a panel to tackle the challenges with account abstraction (AA) and the interesting ways that it can be developed and used.
“It’s also important to be realistic on what is possible to build on… we are trying to create really practical use cases that people are willing to pay for.” – Yong Zhen Yu, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at Web3Auth
Zhen also stressed on the importance of developer experience and how it affects the industry in general:
“There’s definitely a huge support gap in web3 because of its interoperable nature. It ferments in a whole lot of different symptoms like all of the phishing attempts, all the bugs when you make one protocol interact with another. It’s a tough problem to solve, but I think our next installment is gonna solve it.”

Polygon Connect Founders Series, Supra Intralayer Day, and Web3 Re:Invent
We had interesting exchanges with startup founders at Polygon Connect Founders Series as we discussed wallets and web3 UX. We are making the case on why asset portability is the next big step for account abstraction.
Sparks of insights filled the room as Zhen and other Web3 founders discussed about execution on Polygon Connect. It was a grounding experience to see the bigger picture– both the future possibilities and the current realities in the web3 space.
Zhen has also talked about multiple practical applications of MPC wallets on Supra Intralayer Day and Web3 Re:Invent.
Conclusion
Whether it’s a builder crowd or a huddle of technologists, Bangalore didn’t fail to inspire us with novel ideas and connections that we hope to grow into collaboration. We are extremely excited to have talked to some of you, and if you are keen on continuing our conversations about MPC, UX, and AA wallets, please don’t hesitate to keep in touch!
