Bitcoin Foundation Chairman Says “Samsung Will Be Biggest Beneficiary of the Bitcoin Market”

At a press conference in Daejeon, South Korea, Bitcoin Foundation chairman Peter Vessenes alluded to his speculation that Samsung will eventually benefit from bitcoin mining as the general bitcoin infrastructure grows.

and Samsung and IBM already working on a blockchain project.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

I'm all for any big name companies jumping on board. I think getting big well-known and trusted corporations involved will be great to keep bitcoin's name out there and 'legitimize' it with the general public.

I am surprised that these companies haven't come out with mining solutions yet. Or have they?

I'm sure larger name companies will get involved eventually, but would that be a good thing? Would they be able to manufacture mining products cheaper and better?

Would be weird seeing bitcoin miners in store on the high street. I wonder if that would ever happen? Would be nice if the little people could ever contribute to mining again but I don't think that's possible now sadly.
