Vitalik Buterin (Vitalik Buterin) announced that smart accounts will be introduced to Ethereum as part of the Hegota upgrade — approximately by the end of 2026.



This is a feature that developers have been discussing since 2016. The essence is a transition from regular wallets to programmable accounts that can do much more than just store funds and sign transactions.
