As the global demand rises for blockchain solutions that shift from purely trading to payments, Peanut is changing how the world handles money. By helping people send and receive digital dollars with the speed of popular money apps, Peanut makes stablecoins useful for everyone. The team did more than build an app to reach this goal. They fixed the deep technical flaws in old crypto systems, such as seed phrase management and gas costs. By choosing ZeroDev as its main infrastructure provider, Peanut turned a complex process into a smooth business flow. This shift replaced difficult security codes with a fast experience where users can simply pay with their Face ID.
Peanut knew early on that standard crypto accounts would stop people from using its service. Most crypto tools were so frustrating that they blocked growth and kept users away. These old systems had two major flaws.
A long string of words for account recovery is a poor security plan for most people. In old systems, one key controls everything. This makes keeping your own money feel risky, and many people quit during sign-up.
New users often find it hard to manage digital fees and move money between different networks. While many apps fail at this stage, the best ones find ways to make it easy. Peanut needed a system that was safe and simple to use without losing the benefits of the blockchain.
Peanut uses ZeroDev to deliver a professional, seamless service. While some teams spend months fixing unstable tools, Peanut used ZeroDev to launch faster and lower its costs.
The Peanut system uses ZeroDev to manage three main pain points.
"ZeroDev was the clear choice. It provided the account abstraction architecture we required with infrastructure mature enough to be trusted at scale" said Konrad Urban, Founder of Peanut.
This alignment with ZeroDev allows the team to focus on its unique features.
Peanut avoided building its own wallet system from scratch, saving months of work and high audit costs. They picked the only platform that sets the industry standards.
Peanut Protocol stands out by offering features that go beyond what standard crypto wallets and even many modern smart wallets can provide. By using the ZeroDev account model, Peanut provides a unique set of tools that solve the biggest problems in global payments.
Users can sign up using Face ID or Touch ID. This provides strong security and mitigates security threats with a process that feels familiar to any smartphone user.
Peanut pays for transaction fees, so users do not have to. Transfers happen in the background without any extra steps. This avoids confusion and delay by removing friction that often arises when a user doesn’t already have the required gas tokens resulting in a system that just works.
Peanut was built on a foundation that supports over 5 million accounts. This gave them a reliable system from the very first day.
The team increased business speed by focusing on their product instead of fixing wallet code. They also reduced user churn by simplifying logins and fee management. As a subsidiary of Offchain Labs, ZeroDev provides the steady trust needed for a global money app.
The lesson from Peanut is clear. Modern applications must remove technical barriers like manual signing and gas fees to succeed. While old systems slow down growth, the best infrastructure makes these steps invisible to the user. Trust ZeroDev to provide simple solutions that work.
Don't let the technical flaws of "old crypto" stifle your business velocity. In a world where the payment revolution is already underway, from emerging markets to the global freelance economy, your users expect an experience that feels as intuitive as a traditional money app but with the power of self-custody.
Peanut leveraged ZeroDev to turn complex blockchain architecture into a smooth, "invisible" business flow. Now, it’s your turn.
