Vitalik: EIP-8141 is expected to be implemented within a year, fully addressing the account abstraction issueAccording to Odaily, Vitalik posted on X stating that Ethereum has been discussing account abstraction (AA) since early 2016. Now, EIP-8141 has been introduced as a comprehensive proposal aimed at addressing all remaining issues related to AA. The core concept of this proposal is "frame transactions," where a transaction contains N calls that can read each other's call data and can authorize both the sender and the gas payer. This mechanism supports multiple use cases: ordinary account transactions (such as multi-signature, variable keys, and quantum-resistant signature schemes) are completed through verification frames and execution frames; when paying gas fees with non-ETH tokens, it can be achieved through a payment master contract without any intermediaries; in terms of privacy protocols, it can be implemented by verifying ZK-SNARKs or adding two-dimensional random numbers through payment contracts. In terms of security, at the on-chain level, transactions are only valid when the verification frame returns ACCEPT with the gas payment flag; at the mempool level, conservative rules will be adopted initially, with gradual expansion later. EIP-8141 is highly complementary to FOCIL, with FOCIL ensuring rapid transaction inclusion and AA ensuring that complex operations can be executed directly as first-class transactions. The proposal is also discussing EOA compatibility, which is theoretically feasible. After more than ten years of research, these technologies are expected to be implemented within a year through the Hegota fork.
