Ethereum Foundation Supports Clear Signing Encryption Security Solution

On May 13, according to The Block, the Ethereum Foundation is promoting the standardization of the Clear Signing security solution. It has launched a public registry for submitting and distributing contract descriptors, designated Ledger's proposed ERC-7730 as the shared format, and is hosting a tool library to support Clear Signing. Clear Signing aims to replace "blind signing," allowing users to understand transaction descriptions before approving, such as displaying "Swap 100 USDC for 0.05 ETH on Uniswap" instead of opaque hexadecimal data. The Ethereum Foundation stated that clear, human-readable, and structured descriptions are needed for transactions so that wallets can reliably present them to users. To this end, ERC-7730 will serve as an open standard, and clearsigning.org will act as a public registry where anyone can submit contract descriptors, which will be reviewed and certified by independent security experts. Wallets can then retrieve verified descriptions to clearly display to users. This solution is also compatible with existing contracts, as descriptors are stored off-chain in the registry.
