The Smart Contract Wallet¶
This is the final task: The implementation of the Smart Contract Wallet 💸
Before watching the video with my sample solution, you might want to give it a try yourself.
These are the requirements:
- The wallet has one owner
- The wallet should be able to receive funds, no matter what
- It is possible for the owner to spend funds on any kind of address, no matter if its a so-called Externally Owned Account (EOA - with a private key), or a Contract Address.
- It should be possible to allow certain people to spend up to a certain amount of funds.
- It should be possible to set the owner to a different address by a minimum of 3 out of 5 guardians, in case funds are lost.

contract SampleWallet {
address payable owner;
mapping(address => uint) public allowance;
mapping(address => bool) public isAllowedToSend;
mapping(address => bool) public guardian;
address payable nextOwner;
uint guardiansResetCount;
uint public constant confirmationsFromGuardiansForReset = 3;
constructor() {
owner = payable(msg.sender);
}
function proposeNewOwner(address payable newOwner) public {
require(guardian[msg.sender], "You are no guardian, aborting");
if(nextOwner != newOwner) {
nextOwner = newOwner;
guardiansResetCount = 0;
}
guardiansResetCount++;
if(guardiansResetCount >= confirmationsFromGuardiansForReset) {
owner = nextOwner;
nextOwner = payable(address(0));
}
}
function setAllowance(address _from, uint _amount) public {
require(msg.sender == owner, "You are not the owner, aborting!");
allowance[_from] = _amount;
isAllowedToSend[_from] = true;
}
function denySending(address _from) public {
require(msg.sender == owner, "You are not the owner, aborting!");
isAllowedToSend[_from] = false;
}
function transfer(address payable _to, uint _amount, bytes memory payload) public returns (bytes memory) {
require(_amount <= address(this).balance, "Can't send more than the contract owns, aborting.");
if(msg.sender != owner) {
require(isAllowedToSend[msg.sender], "You are not allowed to send any transactions, aborting");
require(allowance[msg.sender] >= _amount, "You are trying to send more than you are allowed to, aborting");
allowance[msg.sender] -= _amount;
}
(bool success, bytes memory returnData) = _to.call{value: _amount}(payload);
require(success, "Transaction failed, aborting");
return returnData;
}
receive() external payable {}
}
You might see already what this shows you... With on-chain wallets, you get a lot more flexibility than with your traditional private-key based wallet. You can implement things like:
- Multi-Signature Transaction Whitelisting, where it needs m-out-of-n people to agree to a transaction
- Emergency operations, like account freezing, or withdrawal limits per day/month, ...
- Whitelisting and Account Sharing
- Account Recovery by using m-out-of-n people to reset an owner, or re-authorize a new person.
- And for the sophisticated DeFi Traders out there, there are functions that help save gas costs, bundle transactions and templates to execute transactions to deleverage positions etc...
