It seems a whole new slew of phones that are optimized for blockchain applications are currently under development. Sirin Labs is going to debut its Finney phone in October 2018 which runs a custom Android OS. The phone will have built-in crypto wallets and will allow seamless behind-the-scenes conversions between different types of tokens. Blacture is also working on the Motif phone, which is supposed to launch in Fall 2018.
These are exciting developments, for sure. And while they might not make sense now, but don’t be surprised to see phone makers such as Apple start to incorporate chips and OS level integration for seamless behind the scenes conversions. For me, this is a trend to watch.
