on the crypto
The announcement of the Samsung and cryptocurrencies: they will be well 13 le new apps available in his official store, Blockchain KeyStore, which enrich the multimedia catalog which - currently - has 17.
Samsung expands the number of Apps
The shop "DApp"Was officially launched last March and signed the success of 2019. Confirmation is this extension remarkable of the App number: it should be noted, however, that the first four apps went a lot on social media, while as far as the 13 recently launched are more versatile and, with regard to Social, we highlight both the one dedicated to entertainment which is “The Hunters"And that useful in the management of the various networks"the Anpa".
The absolute novelty proposed by Samsung refers to technology and is one of the first large companies to make a complete product regarding cryptocurrencies and blockchain.
The launch of Samsung Knox
Only in February did the company announce the launch of the new Galaxy S10, a smartphone with a new feature called Samsung Knox.
According to what was captured by the announcement at the time, Samsung Knox will support the storage of private keys, for any application based on tech blockchain, as if it were really a cryptographic wallet.
The company is proud to be a pioneer of these initiatives and, in a recent publication, underlined that it had crossed this milestone first: "Although other companies have not yet done so, we have already created and released a blockchain portfolio."
In the wake of what Samsung has said, however, it is necessary to make a fundamental clarification remembering that it was not the only company that has created specific products dedicated to technologies related to cryptocurrencies and Blockchain.
The launch of HTC Exodus
In fact, even the consumer electronics giant from Taiwan, HTC, already in October 2018, had announced the launch of HTC Exodus.
Presented as the "first blockchain phone in the world", Is totally focused on blockchain encryption and is not available in any store. The uniqueness of this product is also found in the possibility of purchasing it only and paying by Bitcoin or Ethereum.
In order to have Exodus, in fact, you will have to pay either 0,15 Bitcoin or 4,78 Ethereum which, in dollars, would correspond to around 960.
This high-tech product comes with the browser blockchain focused on Brave privacy, as a default browser.
Launch of Finney
Not even two months after the release of Exodus, one of the major ICO beneficiaries of 2017, Sirin Labs, announced the launch of its blockchain smartphone: Finney
The smartphone was presented and it was specified that it is characterized by the presence of a VirtusLab portfolio detached from the phone hardware.
It was also highlighted that the smartphone would support the direct exchange of some virtual assets including Bitcoin, Ethereum and Sirin Labs Token, completely circumventing the centralized exchange companies.
For this list of phone companies, Apple certainly could not stand by and although, still, has not launched a virtual wallet, the American company is "testing" and has released an update that includes a feature called "CyptoKit"And available with IOS 13.
Meanwhile, the competition with Samsung seems to be ready for the launch of his Galaxy fold put on budget for September. Fold, the announcement of which was previously scheduled for April, was postponed because the comments from the experts who should have assessed its performance were not very encouraging and even determined that the company returned to the drawing board .
There is currently no information on the blockchain or encryption supported by Samsung Fold.
