In the world of Web3, wallets are no longer just simple payment tools or storage media but magical gateways connecting users to myriad DApps. However, with the continuous development of blockchain technology, single-chain wallets have become increasingly inadequate to meet users’ needs in a multi-chain environment. The frequent switching between different wallets and manual cross-chain transfers greatly damages the user experience.
Recognizing the challenge of managing assets across multiple blockchains, INTO has introduced a game-changing solution: the “multi-chain parallel wallet.” This innovative approach simplifies the user experience by consolidating account management and asset aggregation into a single wallet interface. Users can effortlessly interact with various blockchains and their applications, realizing the vision of “one wallet for all chains.” This development represents a significant leap forward for Web3 wallets, potentially transforming how users engage with blockchain technology.
Single-Chain Cage vs. Multi-Chain Liberation
The rapid expansion of various blockchain ecosystems, including Ethereum, BSC (Binance Smart Chain), Polygon, and others, has brought vitality to the Web3 landscape. Yet, despite this growth, users face considerable challenges when attempting to move freely within this multi-chain environment, primarily because of the constraints imposed by existing wallet technologies.
Traditional wallets are often single-chain, meaning they only support asset storage and transactions on a specific blockchain. This implies that if users want to use applications on multiple chains, they must manage multiple wallets simultaneously, switching back and forth between different wallets. This not only fragments the user experience but also greatly increases the complexity of management. Users need to separately record the mnemonic phrases of different wallets, constantly monitor changes in assets on different chains, and manually transfer assets between chains. All of these factors pose high barriers and difficulties for users to participate in Web3.
More importantly, single-chain wallets restrict the possibilities of Web3 applications. Many innovative use cases, such as cross-chain DEXes, cross-chain NFT markets, and multi-chain liquidity mining, require users to smoothly operate across different chains. Without a wallet tool that connects multiple chains, these scenarios are difficult to implement. Indeed, it can be said that single-chain wallets have become a bottleneck restricting the development of Web3.
As a result, the industry has responded to the demands of a multi-chain environment with various initiatives, such as multi-currency wallets and those with integrated cross-chain bridge functions. Yet, these solutions primarily adapt the single-chain wallet concept, adding cross-chain capabilities at the application level. This method eases certain user difficulties but doesn’t address the core issues. Users still have to manage separate identities for each chain, transferring assets between chains involves extra processes, and the reliance on individual blockchain infrastructures is still significant.
INTO’s multi-chain parallel wallet, on the other hand, takes a completely new perspective, attempting to address the limitations of single-chain wallets from the underlying architecture of the wallet. Its technical architecture is a new wallet paradigm called “Account Abstraction.” By implementing account abstraction at the wallet level, INTO aggregates user identities and assets across multiple chains, allowing a main account to command all sub-accounts on different chains. Users no longer need to manage multiple private keys or manually transfer assets between different chains; they can achieve “one identity, multiple forms; one signature, effective across multiple chains.”
Enabling Multi-Chain Integration: INTO Leads the Web3 Wallet Revolution
At the core of INTO’s multi-chain parallel wallet lies its unique “Account Abstraction” (AA) architecture. Simply put, AA decouples user identity from specific chains at the wallet level, forming an abstract, multi-chain unified account layer. This account no longer directly depends on a specific blockchain but becomes a higher-level identity abstraction, capable of flexibly establishing mapping relationships with multiple underlying blockchains.
Specifically, INTO’s AA architecture consists of three key modules:
Master Account: This is the user’s unified identity in the INTO wallet, controlled by a set of master private keys (similar to a mnemonic phrase). The master account does not exist directly on the chain but rather as a local, abstract account within the wallet. It plays the role of a “manager,” responsible for managing and dispatching multiple chain-based sub-accounts associated with it.
Sub-account: These are the master account’s incarnations on specific chains, derived from the master account. Each sub-account has its own address and private key, enabling direct transactions on the corresponding chain. However, the control rights of these sub-accounts belong to the master account. In other words, users only need to manage their master account private keys to control all sub-accounts on various chains.
Account Controller: This serves as the hub connecting the master account and sub-accounts. It is responsible for establishing mapping relationships between the master account and sub-accounts and dynamically dispatching and executing sub-account behaviors based on user instructions at the master account level. For example, when a user initiates a cross-chain transaction at the master account level, the account controller automatically calls the corresponding sub-account to execute the transaction on the chain.
Through this AA architecture, INTO achieves seamless integration of user identity and assets in a multi-chain environment. Users in the INTO wallet only need to manage one master account to freely control and dispatch assets and behaviors on multiple chains. INTO’s Account Abstraction is fundamentally a new paradigm of cross-chain resource scheduling. By abstracting and aggregating wallet accounts, it establishes a unified intermediary layer between users and the multi-chain world, realizing seamless connection and integration of the Web3 experience. This integration occurs not only at the wallet level but also across various aspects of the Web3 ecosystem.INTO’s AA architecture certainly represents a paradigm shift in the Web3 wallet space. It’s designed to offer tens of millions of users a more open, seamless, and innovative experience in the Web3 realm, potentially revolutionizing how individuals interact with blockchain technologies and manage their digital assets.
Seamless Management of Multi-Chain Assets: Reshaping Blockchain Interaction
With the innovative Architecture, INTO is redefining the cross-chain experience for Web3 users from multiple dimensions. This redefinition encompasses identity management, asset scheduling, privacy protection, interaction design, and more.
Firstly, INTO provides users with unprecedented “identity fluidity.” Through the abstraction and aggregation of Web3 identities, users can construct a unified digital identity in the INTO wallet and freely map it to multiple blockchain networks. This identity not only supports seamless migration across multiple chains but also allows the addition of new chain-based identities at any time. For users, this means they no longer have to “fragment” their digital identities across different chains but can maintain a complete and coherent Web3 image.
Secondly, INTO enables users to manage cross-chain assets more flexibly and efficiently. Thanks to the account management mechanism under the AA architecture, users will be able to uniformly view and control tokens and NFT assets on multiple chains at the master account level. Transfers, exchanges, staking… all these cross-chain operations can be completed with a single click through a simple and intuitive user interface, without the need to manually “transfer” assets between chains.
Thirdly, INTO provides enhanced privacy protection capabilities for users. Traditional multi-chain wallets often require users to separately backup and manage private keys on each chain, increasing the risk of private key leakage and making users’ on-chain activities more easily traceable and associated. Through the AA architecture, INTO achieves centralized management of user private keys and selective disclosure of identity information. Users can use the same set of master private keys to control multiple chain-based accounts without cumbersome operations between chains. At the same time, INTO integrates privacy-enhancing technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs and ring signatures, giving users more control over identity privacy.
Finally, INTO is committed to creating a seamless cross-chain interaction experience for users. Traditional cross-chain operations often require users to switch back and forth between different wallets and pages, resulting in a complex and fragmented experience. INTO makes cross-chain operations as smooth as circulating within a single app through a unified account abstraction layer and intelligent interaction design.
In summary, INTO’s cross-chain user experience design can be summarized in two key words: “aggregation” and “flow.” In the INTO wallet, users’ identities, assets, and services are aggregated and everything is moving towards unity and integration. On this basis of aggregation, identities, assets, and services can flow freely between multiple chains, be called upon and used anytime, anywhere, allowing users to truly “roam” in the world of Web3. With the continuous evolution of INTO products and the continuous enrichment of the ecosystem, it will usher in a new era of Web3 wallet – a era of seamless identity, flexible assets, secure privacy, and smooth operations across chains. Users will bid farewell to the embarrassment of the past “hardships” between chains and embrace an unprecedented smooth Web3 experience. And this “aggregation-flow” combined experience paradigm will undoubtedly lead the entire industry’s wallet design concept, injecting more possibilities for innovation into the Web3 industry.
