To accelerate meaningful contributions across the Superchain, the Superchain Eco team has developed Super Accounts, Superchain native-smart accounts powered by Safe that allow users to earn Superchain Points for meaningful onchain participation, increase their Superchain Rank, and evolve their Account to unlock special perks, such as access to a weekly Superchain Raffle and discounts in applications.

After winning first place in Nouns DAO’s best UX/UI implementation with PG ID at Eth Global London, our team received an OBRA ecosystem grant from SafeDAO and spent the past seven months building Ecosystem Accounts, an open-source infrastructure for creating ecosystem-native smart accounts built on Safe that promote a shared culture and accelerate ecosystem development by tracking and rewarding meaningful onchain participation.
A key element of the solution is the user’s Avatar, a personalized Noun generated using the Nouns SDK from NounsDAO, one of the leading funders of onchain impact and public goods.
⚙ Challenges with current onchain accounts
Onchain accounts play a significant role in developing the industry and its open-source solutions. However, current solutions have some limitations:
1. The challenge of Sybil: Most solutions try to find a way to prove a user is “a unique individual.” However, being unique doesn’t necessarily mean one is not gaming the system (as verified identities can be resold) and will contribute to the collective good.
2. The lack of specificity: Most reward programs allocate points for a broad range of actions (such as Layer3). By aggregating many separate tasks into a single score, the value of that score to a specific system decreases (e.g., why should the Optimism Collective care about a user trading on the 5th largest DEX on a non-OP?).
3. Unclear contributor paths: The freedom to use any application and “participate” in many programs has a downside: It makes it harder for users to identify and commit to contributor paths. Due to a lack of information, users use suboptimal solutions and are stuck doing low-value tasks because they cannot identify critical tasks.
⚙ The Solution provided by Super Accounts
Superchain-specific smart accounts that better track, reward, and engage users to accelerate the development of the Superchain.
1. Merging user wallets into a single account: Users can connect their various wallets into one Super Account that tracks their combined contributions. Each wallet can only be connected to one Super Account and has to be validated to become connected. This means each Super Account is guaranteed to control all the associated wallets, allowing for a clear overview of all contributions related to its controller.
2. Curated activities with real meaning: Each activity (Badges) is curated by the Superchain Eco. This means an account's associated level and points will give a good read of that user’s participation in the Superchain, making these users extremely valuable for projects and programs targeting Superchain builders and users.
3. Easy-to-use interface with clear perks and paths: Super Accounts are built on Safe Smart Accounts so that the user can benefit from many UX improvements, such as sponsored transactions. As users earn more badges, they can level up their account, upgrade their Nouns Avatar, and unlock valuable perks provided by third-party providers, ranging from extra sponsored (free) transactions per week to potential trading fee discounts and cashback.
What’s next?
In the coming weeks, our team will continue to iterate on the solution and add new Badges and Apps to Super Account. We’ve also started the research for the second iteration of Super Accounts, which aims to play into the upcoming Superchain InterOp and leverage multi-chain Safes to create a unified Super Account experience across the Superchain.
