The discussion of EIP-8130 is proceeding in conjunction with Base's Cobalt upgrade. This proposal aims to integrate wallet authentication, transaction bundling, and gas payment into an on-chain account configuration method. EIP-8130 provides account abstraction, and according to the official document created on October 14, 2025, it can implement custom authentication and transaction bundling features without separate EVM changes. Base announced its plan to apply EIP-8130 to all EVM chains in a post published on July 17. The Ethereum ecosystem already has other account abstraction paths such as ERC-4337 and EIP-7702. EIP-8130 proposes a structure that allows transactions to be filtered through on-chain validator contracts, with the initial set of validators including secp256k1, P-256, WebAuthn, and delegate methods. Base announced a reduction in the gas required for USDC transfers from 125,000 to 46,000, representing a 63.2% decrease, although this is a self-comparison. EIP-8130 is still in the draft stage, and the next checkpoint will be whether it is incorporated in the Cobalt upgrade in September 2026.
