Not much is really kept behind closed doors these days when it comes to new product releases. We keep getting updates on phones that are just about to be released. This time around, we get new details about the Galaxy S10 and one of its new features: a native cryptocurrency wallet. SamMobile shares images from Twitter user Ben Geskin that shows the Samsung Blockchain KeyStore app. It’s described on its splash page as a “secure and convenient place for your cryptocurrency.” It offers users the ability to import currencies such as Ethereum. It also offers biometric authentication for extra security.
According to SamMobile, there would be two parts to this cryptocurrency service. One is a cold wallet for storing digital currencies, public and private keys, and signing private keys for transactions. Another is a crypto wallet to view account information, transfers, and transaction history.
