Sirin Labs' $1,000 cryptocurrency phone arrives this November
There are only a handful of cryptocurrency-related smartphones in the works, but Sirin Labs thinks that it has the best. The company most famous for the $14,000 Solarin privacy phone is back to launch the Finney, a device for the blockchain crowd.
Sirin's 'blockchain smartphone' will have flagship specs
Late last year, Sirin Labs launched a crowd-sale for what it is calling the "world's first blockchain smartphone." The Finney, named after the late Bitcoin developer Hal Finney, is due to arrive at some point this year. And when it does, it's likely to be packing the sort of spec list that you would expect from a flagship smartphone.
The world's first blockchain smartphone is in development
Sirin Labs, the company behind the $14,000 Solarin smartphone, is now developing an open-source model that runs on a fee-less blockchain. The Finney -- named in honor of bitcoin pioneer Hal Finney -- will be the only smartphone in the world that's fully secure and safe enough to hold cryptographic coins. Or so says the company, which is launching a crowdsale event this October (date to be confirmed) to support the phone's development.
