Vitalik: The Ethereum Account Abstraction Protocol EIP-8141 will be released after the Hegota upgrade.

Foresight News reports that Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin tweeted that EIP-8141 provides a comprehensive protocol to solve all account abstraction issues. This protocol makes transactions no longer a single operation but a series of “frames” that can reference each other’s data, with each frame representing authorization for the sender or Gas payer.

Vitalik gave an example: if you want to pay Gas fees with RAI, you can use a payment main contract (a DEX dedicated to converting other tokens to ETH). This contract only needs to verify that the transaction initiator provides enough RAI to cover Gas fees, without intermediaries. Vitalik stated that minimizing middlemen is a core principle of Ethereum’s “non-ugly cyberpunk” ethos: even if all infrastructure except Ethereum itself fails, you should still maximize what you can do.

Additionally, Vitalik believes this means they can completely remove privacy platforms like Railgun and Tornado Cash, which cause significant user experience pain, and replace them with a “general public memory pool.” He said that after the upgrade, all Ethereum accounts can be integrated into the same framework, gaining batch operation and transaction initiation capabilities.
