Samsung Expands Its Blockchain DApp Kit With New Services, Updates Wallet

South Korean tech giant Samsung has expanded its blockchain and decentralized application Software Development Kit with two new services.

Per the press release shared with Cointelegraph on Aug. 6, Samsung has integrated a digital analytics DApp dubbed "Jupiter" and a QR code-based password wallet "Mars" into Galaxy S10 and newer version of Samsung smartphones.

Jupiter utilizes TrustVerse's artificial intelligence powered price prediction and analytics build on Microsoft Azure architecture.

The DApp enables users to track volatility of digital assets - including Bitcoin and Ether, among others - by analyzing past records of market movements.

Samsung's users will reportedly soon be able to receive in-depth analysis reports on blockchain token market and prices.

The second app, Mars, lets users conduct peer-to-peer cryptocurrency transfers through QR code.

Samsung initially announced its DApp kit in July, stating that it allows for account management and backup, payment and digital signature facilitation, Samsung Keystore and other cold wallet support.

That same month, Cointelegraph reported that Samsung and cryptocurrency payments startup Pundi X's new cooperation will allow users to integrate the XWallet app to their Samsung Blockchain Wallet.

Samsung first revealed that Galaxy S10 series will have wallet functions for digital currencies in February.

Later in May, news broke that Samsung's budget smartphones will also feature cryptocurrency and blockchain features.
