Safe, Smart Contract Wallets, & Account Abstraction with Richard Meissner
Today’s guest is Richard Meissner, co founder & CTO at Safe. Richard is an expert on all things smart contract wallets, and we used this episode to go deep into account abstraction. In particular, we discussed the Safe contract architecture and how things like Safe modules & smart contract wallets work under the hood. The Safe team has rolled out a ton of new libraries & tech that make supporting smart contract wallets and AA a breeze, and we discussed them as well.
