Why We Built xWallet: A Purpose-Built Wallet for 0xequity

At 0xequity, we recognized early on that the existing wallet solutions in the blockchain space were not optimized for the seamless, user-friendly experience we envisioned for our platform. Most wallets follow a one-size-fits-all approach, often lacking the flexibility and advanced features required for modern decentralized applications (dApps).

This is why we built xWallet—an in-house, purpose-built wallet designed to integrate seamlessly with 0xequity’s ecosystem while supporting cutting-edge Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) like EIP-4337 (Account Abstraction), EIP-7212 (Secure Smart Contract Interactions), and EIP-2098 (Compact Signature Standard).

In this article, we’ll dive deep into why xWallet matters, how it enhances user experience (UX), and the technical advantages it brings to 0xequity users.

‍1. The Need for a Custom Wallet: Why xWallet?

1.1 Limitations of Existing Wallets

Most wallets today operate on traditional Externally Owned Accounts (EOAs), which come with several limitations:

• Gas Fees Must Be Paid in Native Tokens (ETH, MATIC, etc.) – Users often need to hold multiple native tokens for different chains, creating friction.
• No Sponsored Transactions – Users must always pay for their own transactions, limiting use cases like onboarding new users.
• Poor Smart Contract Interaction Handling – Many wallets don’t optimize for secure and efficient smart contract calls.
• Complex UX for Non-Crypto Natives – Seed phrases, private key management, and gas estimation are hurdles for mainstream adoption.

1.2 The 0xequity Solution: xWallet

xWallet was built to address these pain points by leveraging EIP-4337 (Account Abstraction), EIP-7212 (Secure Smart Contract Interactions), and EIP-2098 (Compact Signatures).

By integrating these EIPs, xWallet enables:

• Gasless transactions (sponsored by dApps or paid in any token).
• Enhanced security for smart contract interactions.
• Simplified UX with social logins and session keys.
• Cross-chain compatibility without requiring native tokens for fees.

2. Deep Dive into the EIPs Powering xWallet

2.1 EIP-4337: Account Abstraction (Gasless & Flexible Transactions)
