What is a blockchain smartphone, do you need one? HTC Exodus 1 is a much-anticipated block-oriented mobile phone from Taiwanese manufacturers and may have answered the first question. The jury is still being eliminated for the second time. The Science and Technology Press initially learned that Phil Chen, the "decentralized chief officer" at HTC, works on a smartphone when it is used on a computer in a cryptocurrency user such as Bitcoin, Ethernet or thousands of computers. Exodus is working. Finally, in October, Exodus's "early visit" version was sold at a price of 0.15 bitcoin or 4.78 Ain (750 pounds) at the time of publication. The phone will be launched in 34 countries, with the exception of China, which has recently been working on cryptocurrency transactions.
At first glance, Exodus seems to be an offer for a niche market - with HTC feeling the pressure to compete with its rivals Apple and Samsung - with a nice PR buzz. Therefore, selling only through crypto is a gimmick and with the likely effect of making it more difficult to buy Exodus. At the same time, HTC calls it a deliberate policy to have amateurs and no-coiner (Internet jargon for people who do not have a cryptocurrency) available. From the perspective of things, Chen explains, Exodus should only be suitable for the blockchain and crypto currency community. That does not mean - blockchain element aside - the handset is not good: it has impressive data like a 6-inch quad-HD display, 6GB of RAM, a Snapdragon 845 processor, a 3,500-mAh battery, waterproof IP68 cameras and two waterproof cameras front and back. However, the unique outlet of Exodus is referred to as a "safe enclave".
This is essentially a section of the hardware that is separate from the main processor and the Android operating system. The technology is not particularly new: Apple uses a similar architecture to protect biometric data on its iPhone - fingerprints and later face ID information - since 2013. But HTC Exodus will use this locked part to store users' cryptocurrency the numeric codes required to issue the crypto currency store.
With Exodus, HTC also hopes to fix another typical crypto nightmare: the loss of your cryptocurrency keys - through forgetfulness, theft or destruction of a phone or hardware purse. Through a mechanism called social key recovery, users can select some trusted contacts and give each of them a packet of their key. In this way the code can be reassembled if necessary. The site of HTC Exodus is plastered with quotes from Cryptocurrency-Grandees - including the co-founder of Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin, and the Litecoin creator Charlie Lee, who thrilled the device. Chen says more than 30 executives in space have advised the Exodus development team "at critical touch points."
