We don't know what will happen to bitcoin in the future. Why should I buy such a smartphone now? I am also concerned about the stated price of the smartphone. $ 1,000 is that okay? It seems to me that this is a hopeless project that has no practical significance. Another attempt to cash in on the name of bitcoin.
The more renowned companies get into blockchain/cryptocurrency technology the brighter it will be in future imo.
Before I read about Samsung interest to involve in blockchain tech and now Huawei, so I think blockchain technology is getting stronger day by day. I believe its not the end, more will join the party.
No one in this world does anything without thinking their own benefits, but we have to wait and see how beneficial the product will be for the consumers.
