Congrats to Gemini. It's one way to make the exchange well known to potential crypto users since Samsung phones are known to have built-in wallets especially the S20.
Of all exchanges though why not Polo because after Samsung already started adopting TRON of Sun and he owns Polo as well?   Seem a waste partnership for TRON and Samsung that it should have been Polo's place.

Samsung was known to be integrating their phones into cryptocurrency and making their own wallets. We expect that there will be more of these partnerships coming from this large company. This is what crypto needs.

Huge and real companies having ties with huge crypto companies too. This will strengthen the belief and trust of people that don't like the idea of crypto. They are looking now into a real partnership and how crypto is a serious thing.

[tycsols]

This news has really made me happy as being the largest smart phone company in the world Samsung will now provide both the crypto wallet and the trading platform in the palms of each and every samsung user which definitely is a great sign and i am sure other big companies will follow it as well.

[Krislaw]

This is a great news and happy to see a big tech company showing so much interest in the blockchain community. Last news I read was them adding a crypto app on their blockchain wallet(can't remember the news well). I hope more big tech companies follows in this step which will be good spread of blockchain awareness to the world.

So, it can be said that Gemini is the 1st U.S. exchange that integrates with the great Samsung Blockchain Wallet, right? It is a very good step forward done by Gemini. Moreover, this exchange is listed on CMC rank 58, by this way, it can probably help Gemini to step forward to the higher rank. However, it only limits on the S10 & S20 series.

The integration of the applications allows the user to:
1. Buy crypto, sell, and also trade them easily on the app.
2. Store the crypto directly and self-custody on the Samsung Galaxy Phone,
3. Transfer the crypto into cold storage.

I read an article that said:

Samsung Blockchain users in the U.S. and Canada can now connect to Gemini’s mobile app to buy, sell, and trade crypto after the companies built an integration between the two applications.

Does it mean that only users from the U.S and Canada who can use this? What's about users from other countries? Does it mean we cannot use it?

Samsung have been integrating a lot of altcoins in their wallet since they launch their mobile based blockchain wallet. And I think they made a bold move here by partnering with Gemini which is one of the well known exchanges in the market right now.

However, one drawback that I see here is the price, but for those people who can afford their latest model that supports this, then I guess there's no problem. For for average joe like me, it's quite expensive and I would rather use that money to bring more capital to more trading funds, just saying.

@Rengga Jati - Perhaps US and Canada are the first target here and probably it will be roll out to Asia as well in the next iteration.

[pakhitheboss]

The problem here is that it is only available for S10 and S20 users. Samsung should roll out their cryptocurrency wallet in mid range models. This will encourage users to venture into crypto world. There are more mid range user of Samsung mobile. I just waiting when will the Chinese mobile companies like OnePlus and others also follow Samsung's footstep. They are known to quickly copy and release their models at a cheaper price.

[JeffBrad12]

This is a great partnership and im using s20 right now, it looks like my phone will be integrated with the gemini exchange site.

That will bring massive adoption to the gemini exchange consider there are so many people use the same handheld like me too. i can't be patient to use this service.

Thank you so much for this news.

Partnering with Samsung is not a big thing now, previously there were also several projects that partnered with Samsung but it wasn't very influential.

[Kotone]

Partnering with Samsung is not a big thing now, previously there were also several projects that partnered with Samsung but it wasn't very influential.

How can you say bot influential, of course people are buying hype too. Remember when enjin coin has partnership with samsung? They fly high and even the recent collaboration with theta. Now gemini is an exchange that dont have tokens on their platform but this is a good sign that samsung expanding their league. I am a samsung user and will try to upgrade soon so I can try if their built in blockchain wallet is good to use or just simply a wallet like common ones.

[maydna]

Well, I can say congratulations to Samsung, which partnering with Gemini, and perhaps, that can be innovations from Samsung that want to integrate with the blockchain technology. I guess that soon, and the other smartphone company will follow what Samsung does so that can help the cryptocurrency grows fast as we know right now, the digital era already began. With integrating to the blockchain technology can make the public know about crypto, and they will want to learn about crypto itself.

Partnering with Samsung is not a big thing now, previously there were also several projects that partnered with Samsung but it wasn't very influential.

I think that is because Samsung is a large company and very popular on the Smartphone, computer so this news can be as big news for crypto user. It can also lift the selling of S10 and S20 series from Samsung so that can be a good partnership between Samsung and Gemini. So we can see what will happens later to both Samsung and Gemini.

[leyton11]

I find this news fairly normal. It is important that customers still do not use Gemini to pay and buy samsung. so the fact that Gemini appeared on Samsung phones is just an advertisement. If Samsung phones are used by people who don't know crypto, I think this marketing campaign will be pathetic.

[iTradeChips]

This is a hair raising but at the same time exciting news happening in the world of cryptocurrency.

A tech giant such as Samsung is partnering with a cryptocurrency company so that users of their mobile phones can be able to invest in cryptocurrencies. That will enable to very big chunk of mobile users to experience cryptocurrencies and that way will help increase in one way or another the prices of cryptocurrencies.

Nevertheless, we still need to be very careful when making investments. Remember this is just an additional platform for us to use, by using our mobile phones. And it would still depend on us how we would be able to become successful in cryptocurrencies.

[irixo10]

It really makes me happy reading such news, because it always sends that message to the world that crypto have something wonderful to offer to all and sundry and thus will always keep growing to explore more platforms. Indeed Gemini has taken a good step at the same time Samsung is also proving to be ahead of others owing to its high recognition and respect of the crypto space, that is to say, Samsung is getting ready for the future. I believe more of this is coming and it's just a matter of time.

[lunnatic]

this is really good news for the world of crypto currencies! Samsung is a big technology company in the world, if crypto currency is integrated in their smartphone, I can't imagine the adoption that will be done by the world 

[studio1one]

Looks like Samsung is going all in on blockchain tech 'coz they have integrated lot of crypto projects in their flagship phone.

Now eagerly waiting for apple to announce something similar lol.

   Studio1one it's true, Samsung is integrating crypto-currencies for some time already, and now they
partnered with exchange, it would be interesting what will be the next. When giant like Samsung is
doing this, we know we are a step closer to mass adoption.
    Apple is the biggest, I would like to see them joining too, but I believe there are others who will
join before Apple. And when Apple joins in one moment it will be huge, like everything else they are
doing!

[dwminer1]

Thats great news! And this is another recent Samsung initiative in the field of cryptocurrencies. Last month, Tron dapps arrived in the Samsung App Store: https://cointelegraph.com/news/tron-dapps-arrive-on-the-samsung-app-store
It's very good that giants like Samsung are seriously interested in blockchain-based projects. I hope that other companies follow in the footsteps of Samsung. Thanks to this, the entire cryptographic environment will benefit. Im sure that pioneering companies like Samsung will also benefit a lot. Win-win situation.

[timmmers]

This would be very helpful for newcomers, we still don't have an easy solution how to buy cryptocurrencies, now when they have pre-installed app in their phone, it will be very easy to buy their first Bitcoins.

[torrantz]

This would be very helpful for newcomers, we still don't have an easy solution how to buy cryptocurrencies, now when they have pre-installed app in their phone, it will be very easy to buy their first Bitcoins.

You can't generalized that will be very helpful for the newcomers as it will be only available for Samsung flagship phone. That means another brand can't do the same as what did by Samsung and gemini.
It will very help full to attract the new adopters from the Samsung users.

[Yaunfitda]

So Samsung has integrated Gemini mobile app into Galaxy wallet, or what? How is this different from Gemini wallet&exchange installed on my iPhone? The key question is  which from two mobile OSes  is  more security to use when dealing with cryptocurrency  and not in choosing between integrated or standallone app. I'm still preferring to have the latter on my iPhone.

Good point, I think for us crypto users, regardless of what phone we are using, security comes first, specially that if our phone are always online, chances are, hackers can steal our crypto's without us knowing.

This is just good as a hype, for Samsung and Gemini though, so I don't see any difference at all. Just go to Gemini app and then trade, regardless if you are a Samsung or Iphone user here.

[MikeyVeez]

HTC come with the first crypto friendly mobilephone, but they did one mistake, they focused on very small group of crypto enthusiasts, but Samsung will offer it to everyone!

Its a race to compete all other exchanges to gain clients, not a race of cryptocurrency adoption. Not everyone is really comfortable in trading while on mobile phones ance certainly not using Samsung phones as well. Binance chose brave browser for its also a popular browser these days. 

But for someone who is concern more about privacy and comfort. I think Samsung picked the wrong partner here. Ift might surprise us all if you wait awhile who will partner up with Huawei.

That's one of the many mistakes of HTC, I consider HTC to have a bad marketing strategy that makes them fall behind their competitors. Having a phone that has a part of cryptocurrency is one of a good features for us, cryptocurrency users.

Companies are trying new things to put in their technology and it is good for Samsung to offer a part of cryptocurrency in their phones. It's a good move in Gemini partnering up with Samsung because Samsung is one of the biggest phone companies existing today. Users do have different choices about their exchange bias and this adaptation I think is to spread awareness and gain new users to download their app via Samsung galaxy store.

[Renampun]

...

GEMINI developers are really great...
We all know that Samsung is a top brand and because of the good reputation they have it is definitely very difficult to work together with Samsung, I smell the mass adoption of cryptocurrencies will occur in the next few decades.

[HunterUnchained]

This is most certainly a huge development and one that will help push the adoption of crypto to the mainstream sector. Samsung already has a huge market and customer base and this makes it absolutely easy to have more viewers and users getting to know about cryptocurrency and possibly getting them on board or interested in what crypto has to offer. This partnership could also mean samsung getting to adopt crypto payments.

Definitely this shows that afootion is just coming up at a global scale but before we go into a euphoric state regarding this news we should also see stats regarding samsungs crypto wallet which is coming in its topline smartphones since last 2-3 years so what is the impact of it? Any positive impact on market or user growth? I think their wallet usage and active transactions were very very low, not many users showed interest in using their wallet this is perhaps because people do not want their portfolio to get lost with their phones and also people like to have private wallet with private keys.

Yea because of samsung and its partnerships we will see a huge amount of new users flowing into crypto space. Which would in turn increase the market cap of crypto space.

[rajakulam]

congratulations for Gemini, we hope that in the future more and more companies engaged in technology will follow the steps of Samsung companies, thereby adding interest for new investors to invest in cryptocurrency.

[htsy585]

This is really a huge boost to the entire cryptocurrency space and i must congratulates Gemini exchange for this strategic partnership will creates a huge hype and recognition for them. Before now, i never knew there's an exchange called Gemini and i believe most people don't know to but due to the partnership with Samsung, virtually everyone now knows about them. We need more giant companies like Samsung to adopt cryptocurrency, it will help this industry attain mainstream

There are so many Samsung phones sold around the world at least a small percentage of that is going to be influenced to use this new wallet or trading that is developed by Samsung. This is a great move by Gemini having a partnership with a giant smartphone company as the development continues this could be popular because cashless transactions are also becoming a big trend around the world. In my opinion. it was not really a bad picked by Samsung Gemini is not really a bad exchange at all and might have potential. Considering Huawei a lot of people are already off in the brand since there are conflicts with google it could still be a great wallet if develop in a Huawei phone.

[Dpat]

This partnership with Gemini for the Samsung and for Gemini both will enjoy their demand in the economy. But the Gemini will get more popularity as the biggest brand Samsung directly offer it's platform for the Gemini.

[newminerr]

Any news on Crypto getting more mainstream is what makes me wanna party,
With crypto being embedded officially by companies like Samsung, more still skeptical people are gonna hop on to platform with greater trust like never before.

[filterMX]

Congratulations, Samsung company has allowed cryptocurrency trading through Gemini coins, for the future more and more fans will invest in cryptocurrency, we hope that other companies involved in technology will soon also allow cryptocurrency trading.

Maybe so. Samsung is gathering partners of different businesses such as a network TRON and then an exchange like Gemini. It's not an exchange that most of us here in the forum are using actually but they care to partner up.  Any phone that has the capability to install wallets can be used for cashless transactions though, its where we are going for sure so good for Samsung.  Huawei seem not partnering yet with blockchain companies but Chinese has its own Huawei Store and this Huawei Store can even be installed on a Samsung phone, that big advantage.

[dutt]

That's great news for an alt! Interaction between a normal phone user and crypto will increase with this partnership. I hope other phone manufacturers follow Gemini's and Samsung's example. Integration in phones and direct usage equal key factors.
