A new wallet that has launched on Optimism allows users to generate an address without storing seed words, and the account can be saved using an ordinary Twitter login. Called “Beam,” the wallet runs in a browser window and requires no downloads, according to a July 27 announcement from its developer. It also allows users to send transactions on Optimism without owning Ether (ETH).
Beam was developed by Eco, a payments company backed by Web3 venture capital firms Andreessen Horowitz, Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) Ventures, Founders Fund, Lightspeed Venture Partners and Pantera Capital.
