EIP for PDAs, for dapps? (Programmatically derived addresses)

Etherum Reddit

Hey everyone, I'm a dev with a long background in eth. I'm working on a new project now, and PDAs are very powerful. I'd like to include them, but ethereum has never offered anything like this.

Is there any discussion about PDAs? Anything on the roadmap? PDAs are the kind of platform innovation that makes development easier, and adoption more scaleable and user-friendly.

At this point, after working with erc standards forever, I am loving this PDA structure. I have to think I'm not the only one, and I don't see much interest around platform innovations for ethereum. But I would love to see an EIP for this.

Edit: Quick PDA summary if you're not familiar:

  • PDAs are created by passing a program ID and an array of seeds through a hash function.
  • PDAs look like public keys, but they don't have private keys.
  • The seeds are an array of strings that can include things like the signer ID or escrow account.
  • The "bump" seed is used to ensure that the PDA is not on the elliptic curve, which means it doesn't have a corresponding private key.

Why I like this - No private keys, as mentioned - can be used to create hashmaps and other structures on-chain, helping to structure data in a way that is easy to access and modify, especially programmatically. So they can be used to create accounts with flow control that are only accessible by a specific program.
