It says a lot for cryptocurrency everywhere that one of the biggest phone brands in the world has added support for digital assets in its latest release. Samsung’s new Galaxy S10 series has done just that, with a built-in wallet function for Bitcoin (available on Coinbase), Ethereum (available on Coinbase), and two other aLTCoins.
Samsung Galaxy S10 Supports Crypto
A Samsung official unveiled the phone’s new features at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain yesterday.
The phone has been created with “various crypto and blockchain related projects” as standard on the device. It presented COSMEE, a blockchain-based beauty social media platform, as its first dApp partner.
COSMEE
Serviced by Cosmochain blockchain, COSMEE is a well-known dApp in Korea that uses the blockchain to share and log beauty content.

According to dApp Life:
“Cosmochain explains that a trustworthy reward system can be created, as all activities including reviews and evaluations can be recorded on blockchain.”

The tech giant also unveiled its support for Enjin on the Samsung Galaxy S10. Enjin is a South Korean cryptocurrency wallet that is pre-installed on the phone. Enjin is reportedly capable of sending and receiving ERC-20 tokens and ERC-1155 crypto game assets.
