Building smart account infrastructure for @stellarorg

[Latch @uselatchapp]

Who even are we?

We’re Latch.

We’re building Smart Account infrastructure for @BuildOnStellar .

A lot becomes possible when the account itself can do more, but that shouldn’t mean the person using it has to deal with more complexity.

That’s really the idea behind Latch.

We’re starting with things like making Smart Accounts easier to fund and use, while building the infrastructure wallets and apps need to support them properly.

We’ll be sharing a lot more of what that looks like as we go.

@stellargate_io One signature for all that? yeah passkeys are starting to cook 😂

[Latch @uselatchapp]

@TellusCoop @Heisbei02 @StellarPassport Using the same passkey for the workaround is such a nice touch to be honest

[Latch @uselatchapp]

@symplyKen @StellarPassport @StellarOrg Letting the contract be the one that actually says yes or no makes way more sense to be honest

[Latch @uselatchapp]

@StellarOrg @WisdomTreeOnchn @vinhonchain Five years is wild👏👏, makes all the “tokenization is suddenly here” talk kinda funny

[Latch @uselatchapp]

@OnyeokoroAfoma wait how are you checking that someone actually converted before the payout goes out?

[Build on Stellar | Meridian 🔜🇵🇹 @BuildOnStellar]

24 proposals are in for this quarter's Public Goods Award, and the discussion period is now open for all.

Here's what's on the table ⬇️

[Latch @uselatchapp]

@Heisbei02 @StellarPassport oh this is clean👏, especially not making people manage another wallet just to cash out

[Latch @uselatchapp]

Getting money into a wallet is only half the experience.

Once it arrives, people still want to move it, spend it, save it, swap it, or send it somewhere else.

A good wallet shouldn’t make each of those feel like a separate crypto lesson.

Receiving the money should be the beginning of the experience, not where the wallet stops helping.

A small Road to Mainnet update from us.
The biggest change recently is pretty simple: there’s finally a real path for people who are interested in Latch to raise their hands.
We moved the website from just telling the story to actually taking waitlist signups, simplified signup so joining is immediate, and we’ve started getting the first people onto the list.
It’s a small step compared to shipping the wallet itself, but it makes the whole thing feel a little more real.

Onward.

Building a wallet on @BuildOnStellar has a funny way of making the flashy features feel like the product.

Then you test one properly and realise how much of the experience comes down to ordinary things.

Does the error make sense? What happens when the network is slow? Can someone tell if an action worked? Do they know where to pick up tomorrow?

None of that looks exciting on a feature list, but it’s a huge part of whether a wallet feels good to use.

The boring flows deserve good design too.

@TellusCoop @StellarOrg @BuildOnStellar @stellarglobal Not yet 😅 we’ve mostly been reading through the changes so far. The migration path is definitely one of the bits we want to test properly though

One-time keys for a vault is such a weirdly simple idea until you start thinking through what it buys you. Really interesting experiment.

[Tomer Weller @tomerweller]

I hear y'all like bunkers, so here's SoroBunker, a minimal vault for Stellar that uses one-time keys to stay quantum-resistant at rest.

@StellarOrg I think the interesting part is making the “configurable” bit understandable to normal users. Most people shouldn’t have to know which layer the privacy is coming from

[Latch @uselatchapp]

@andresanemic @BuildOnStellar @StellarOrg @Stellar_Chile @TellusCoop ayyy it’s live 👏 what are you trying to get polished before Meridian?

[Latch @uselatchapp]

@tomerweller okay this is cool. How are you thinking about recovery though? feels like that gets interesting pretty quickly once you start using one-time keys

[Latch @uselatchapp]

@DalekThai love this 👏 coming back a year later and actually having stuff you’ve built must feel completely different

[DalekThai 🡲 Stellar Meridian 🇵🇹 @DalekThai]

Next stop: Lisbon for Meridian 2026! 🇵🇹

Meridian 2025 was my very first step into blockchain. After an intense year of learning, it’s time to put it into practice and celebrate the journey.

If you'll be around, let's meet up! 🤝

Question for the builders around @BuildOnStellar.

If you’ve integrated a wallet into an app before, what part ended up taking more work than you expected?

Could be connecting, signing, handling account state, testing different wallets, dealing with failed transactions, or something completely different.

We’ve been thinking about the integration side of wallet UX lately and would love to hear where the annoying bits actually are.

30 days to 1 day is crazy. That’s the bit that makes this feel less like a blockchain demo and more like actual infrastructure.

[Stellar @StellarOrg]

30 days → 1 day.

@pwc_de built a new securitization payout solution for EOS Group on Stellar. Smart contracts run the payout waterfall, settling near-instantly in @AllUnityStable's MiCA-regulated euro stablecoin.

Tech implementation by @tokenforge.
