Wasted a lot of time researching wallets, they're all bad. Metamask - bugs, unreliable HW support, bad UX. Rainbow - no custom RPC support, hides metadata too much. Rivet - no ledger support, dapp-dev focused, stagnant 2+ mo. XDefi - Swaps I don't need, more defi than tech. Keplr - good multi-chain, bad multi-account, why?! GridPlus - expensive hardware, doesn't fix browser UX. Status - social stuff I don't need in a place that shouldn't have it. MyCrypto - joined metamask, RIP. Ambire - not an extension, walletconnect, no custom networks. MEW Enkrypt - better metamask, still too non-technical. Frame - github stagnant 2+ mo. Window management issues. Rabby Desktop - seems ok, very recent, trying it out. Can I have a wallet that doesn't hide what it is doing? How am I supposed to trust if I can't see? Most users might not be interested in what happens under the hood, but I am. And where are the real technical features? Wishlist: - Log of RPC calls, tx hashes, etc? - Account management that isolates each account? - Introspection of signing requests? - Network customization that actually works? - Different local network configs with the same port? - Different RPCs for the same chain. - Network-selection not stuck when current RPC is offline. - User-choice for insertion as window.ethereum or EIP6963. - Wallet-connect support as a last-resort, not as a default. - Choice of different RPC endpoints to serve different RPC methods? - Blocking RPC requests until manual ACK. - Allows more than 1 chain to be active, across different windows? - Dumping data to JSON / CSV as first-class feature. - Makes transactions readable by decoding ABI calls. - Allows for simulation of the transaction, with clear state-changes, before signing. - Doesn't try to override the fee settings of a tx after you modify them. - Provide cast commands to inspect/debug data? - Logs state-changes along with transaction data, before it becomes archive-only data. - Allows me to copy transaction/receipt contents without going to etherscan. - Provides easy etherscan/blockscout/etc. explorer links. - Provides me with a clear idea of the canonical chain. - Supports light-clients or cross-RPC checks to not get trapped by lying RPC provider. - Provides me with clear confirmation-distance / finality info. - Allows you to label addresses that are not yours. And export/import label books. - Allows you to pull address labels from etherscan/nansen/other. - Can show you history as a graph of transactions. - Makes transaction-nonces very clear, and allows you to override them. - Understands queues of transactions. - Allows you to re-submit a tx, even to a different RPC, without signing it again. - Shows you clear historical basefee data. - Shows you clear historical priority-fee data. - Shows you clear historical block gas-usage / capacity data. - Allows you to turn a dapp tx request into a multi-call, to append side-effects. - Has "dotfiles" you can export/import for common chain interactions, like WETH wrap/unwrap. - Allows you to *record* dapp interactions and turn them into a forge script for repeat/customized execution. - Hides web3 accounts from websites you visit - Provides read-only mode, does not require online keys. - Doesn't rely on centralized data indexers. - Runs outside browser as much as possible. - Tells me if a signing/RPC request was closed by the dapp and got stale. - Shows a clear overview of in-flight transactions. - Supports monitoring of tx-hashes and nonce-increments across different RPCs, to get extra quick confirmation. - Doesn't hide blockhashes / account addresses / technical metadata. - Doesn't have a big supply-chain attack-surface. - Doesn't auto-update with some app-store. - Minimal javascript reliance. Not an electron app. - Is very clear about local storage usage. - Does not have a token. - Doesn't have telemetry. - Does not sell my orderflow. - Does not sell my data. - Does not force in their bridging. - Does not force in their swaps. - Is not owned by mega corp. - Is open-source. I don't care about an NFT gallery in my wallet. I don't care about auto-updating ERC20s in my wallet. I care about transparency and dev-level ownership over my own wallet. Is there some wallet out there I don't know about? How big was the opportunity cost of focusing on the protocol, and not fixing the above? How much defi did I miss? How many airdrops? Degen'ing feels a lot a safer with a good wallet. Should I just create my own web3 wallet? I know I can build all of the above, given enough weekends. And no, I'm not contributing to your wallet if it's JS/TS/mobile. Is there really nothing like this?
