HTC Says Its Crypto-Friendly Smartphone Will Support Litecoin

Htc says its crypto-friendly smartphone will support litecoin

HTC’s new blockchain-compatible smartphone will support litecoin, creator Charlie Lee said Sunday.

Lee announced the news Sunday, adding that he was joining the development team of the HTC Exodus as an advisor. The news comes days after Lee claimed he met with the Exodus’ team last week. Lee further confirmed that the Exodus will support the Lightning Network on litecoin natively.

He added a disclaimer that the Exodus will still support bitcoin.

HTC confirmed the news Monday, saying the team was “honored” to have Lee join as an advisor.

The Taiwanese electronics maker first announced the Exodus in May, saying it was developing the world’s first cryptocurrency smartphone. The device will serve as both a mobile connecting point to blockchain networks and a storage device for major cryptocurrencies including bitcoin and ethereum, as previously reported by CoinDesk.

HTC chief crypto officer Phil Chen told CoinDesk that the company is hoping to begin distributing the new phone by the end of the year, though he declined to provide a firm date.

Individuals interested in purchasing the Exodus early can participate in a pre-sale with bitcoin or ether, he said.

In July, HTC said the phone will also support the mobile app CryptoKitties.

HTC is not the only company working on a blockchain-dedicated smartphone – Sirin Labs recently raised $157 million in an initial coin offering to build the “Finney.”

The Confideal ICO Has Started – Time to Contribute to Success!

Confideal, a smart contract platform on Ethereum blockchain (confideal.io), are excited to announce that their long-awaited ICO has started today – November 2 at 12:00 noon Central European Time (CET).

[Note: This is a press release.]


The campaign is expected to raise 70,000 ETH, which equals 21.5 million U.S. dollars as of this day. Confideal’s ICO features a generous incentive program that enables early investors to receive a 25% bonus in CDL tokens. The token generation event will last for 20 days.

Achievements of Confideal

Confideal has been working tirelessly to develop an easy to use platform that will deliver maximum value to its users. To that end, they have entered into several strategic cooperative agreements designed to deliver increased security and data integrity, more flexible payment capabilities, and expanded features and functionality. To achieve that Confideal has partnered and cooperated with 13 companies. Moreover, Confideal works with 12 external advisors on their board. Thus, it all results in a very productive workflow and development.

Confideal has more than 80,000 subscribers in total on all of their social media profiles as well as 5000 subscribers-contributors on their website.

Confideal has had a huge amount of positive feedback on media related to investments, crypto, and technology. You can find the list on the website.

About Confideal

Confideal enables businesses and individuals to create Ethereum smart contracts through a user-friendly interface that requires no programming skills. A fully functional version of the platform is already available and currently supports two-party interaction, like conventional agreements. The team is already working on more complex scenarios that will include multi-party transactions and contracts that are triggered by data from third-party services (for example, freight companies) and various devices (Internet of Things integration). One of the features that are listed on the project’s roadmap, the arbitration module, is expected to be rolled out early 2018.

The platform is targeting multiple sales channels and the business model includes C2C and B2C interactions (transactions between individuals and between a business and a customer), as well as B2B and B2B2C (contracts that involve multiple business participants and customized complex use cases for large eCommerce companies that sell goods and services to consumers). The monetization model is currently based on a flat 1% fee (waived for CDL token holders who pay in tokens), but the pricing principles may be adjusted in the future.

In multiple independent ICO reviews, Confideal’s campaign has been highly rated, evaluated as “stable” and recommended to long-term investors (ICOrating.com, ICObench.com, ICObazaar.com).

Super Secure and Safe to Invest ICO

In an effort to reduce fraud and encourage responsibility and accountability in the token market, smart contract management platform Confideal has announced the start of their transparency initiative. A hash (which is sometimes called “digital fingerprint”) of the project’s whitepaper PDF file will be saved inside the ICO smart contract as a read-only variable and will be available on Etherscan.

During the ICO and continuing after its conclusion, the PDF file itself will be available for download at Confideal’s website, which will enable any user to calculate the hash of the file long after ICO and compare it against the hash inside the ICO smart contract. If so much as one byte is changed, the hashes will not match. Along with ensuring the integrity of the ICO’s main document, Confideal will be maintaining a special webpage where reports on the project’s ongoing progress will be published.
