Wallets

IBEx orchestrates authentication and on-chain actions through defined wallet models. The primary production path is Safe smart accounts secured with passkeys; externally owned accounts (EOAs) are a complementary model with different trade-offs.

Comparison

Aspect	Safe Smart Account	EOA
On-chain representation	Smart contract wallet	Keypair-derived address (20-byte on EVM)
Signing	Passkey (WebAuthn / FIDO2) as primary signer	Traditional private-key or wallet-app signatures
Custody	Self-custody via passkey material and contract logic	Self-custody via key material
Programmability	Modules, policies, multi-sig, recovery flows	Limited to native account semantics
IBEx status	Supported (passkey-first)	Work in progress
Detail page	Safe Smart Account	EOA

Choosing a model

• Use Safe when you want passkey-based authentication, upgradeable wallet logic, and features such as recovery or multi-sig aligned with the Safe stack.
• Use EOA when you need legacy signer compatibility; confirm WIP status and API coverage before relying on it.
