In web3, you control your keys. But lose them once and you will lose everything. Will mainstream adoption happen if people can lose all their funds by just basically losing their password? We need something better and smart contract-based accounts might be the game-changer.

Wallets are limiting Web3's potential. Try building a simple dapp that lists all the tokens in your wallet without using a centralized platform's API. To do this you'll have to scan the whole blockchain and check the balance for each token or NFT one by one. Sounds ridiculous?…

For example, a Universal Profile on the @lukso_io blockchain is a smart contract that can, like a wallet, hold funds but is controlled by another smart contract called the Key Manager. This contract functions as a gateway for your account.

It almost never happens that the first iteration of software is perfect. Still, most NFTs are created with this super basic standard (ERC-721) and the whole ecosystem is like “yea let’s just stick with that”. For the NFT space to evolve we need to move on to better standards.

Most NFT smart contracts lack data about the project and its creators, relying on platforms like OpenSea for information. We need creator references on the smart-contract level so creators can build up an on-chain reputation. This is what ERC725Y enables.

@Amxx I think LSP8 has some advantages over ERC-721. For example, it allows on-chain reference of creators, which is important for NFTs. When combined with Universal Profiles, there is a two-way on-chain reference between creators and assets. This helps establish an on-chain reputation…
