This tutorial will take you through the process of writing your own account contract in Aztec.nr, along with the Typescript glue code required for using it within a wallet.

Every account in Aztec is a smart contract which defines the rules for whether a transaction is or is not valid. This allows implementing different schemes for transaction signing, nonce management, and fee payments. However, encryption and nullifying keys, which are specific to private blockchains, are still enshrined at the protocol level.

Authentication Witness is a scheme for authenticating actions on Aztec, so users can allow third-parties (eg protocols or other users) to execute an action on their behalf.

Bear mind that, as in Ethereum, wallets should require user confirmation whenever carrying out a potentially sensitive action requested by a dapp.

In this page we will cover the main responsibilities of a wallet in the Aztec network.
