After a round of rumors and speculation, Samsung has reportedly revealed a full-blown crypto wallet for the Galaxy S10.
Samsung says the wallet will support Ethereum and Ethereum-based tokens, but will not support Bitcoin on day one, according to a report from CoinDesk Korea. Additional cryptocurrencies will be added in the future. The wallet also includes support for decentralized apps at launch, including Enjin, Cosmee, CryptoKitties and CoinDuck.

EOS
A crazy crypto transaction on the EOS network turned out to be fake. Whale watchers freaked out when a user appeared to initiate a transaction of 1 trillion EOS worth about $3.6 trillion.

The transaction, which was about eight times bigger than the entire crypto market cap, was quickly determined to be illegitimate and was removed from the network.
[the_ad id="42537"] [the_ad id="42536"]An EOS user named "fuckhacker.x" figured out how to create a large fake transaction, but it seems EOS was able to detect it. Unfortunately, the transaction was broadcasted before it was removed. We have built in an extra check to prevent it from happening again.
