According to a note shared by South Korean electronics giant Samsung, the billionaire firm has successfully integrated the Tron decentralized web blockchain (TRX) into its dApp store: Keystore Blockchain.
Tron dApps arrives at Samsung
In a big boost for the development and adoption of the TRX ecosystem, Samsung smartphone giant Samsung announced that its latest blockchain API dApp, Samsung Blockchain Keystore SDK v1.2.0, will support TRX transaction driven APIs. According to sources close to the matter, Samsung is scheduled to announce the highly anticipated Samsung Blockchain Platform SDK at the Samsung Developer Conference 2019. The official announcement says in part:
“ SAMSUNG BLOCKCHAIN KEYSTORE IS A FUNDAMENTAL PART OF SAMSUNG’S BLOCKCHAIN INITIATIVE AND ADDRESSES SOME OF THE KEY SECURITY CONCERNS PRESENTED BY BRINGING BLOCKCHAIN TO MOBILE PLATFORMS. SAMSUNG BLOCKCHAIN KEYSTORE ALLOWS SECURITY-CONSCIOUS USERS TO TREAT THEIR PHONE LIKE A COLD WALLET, STORING THEIR PRIVATE INFORMATION IN A DEDICATED SECURE AREA WITH THE ADDITIONAL PROTECTION OF SAMSUNG KNOX AND TEE. «
With the new integration, any of Samsung’s nearly one billion smartphone users who have access to the Keystore Blockchain can use the APIs for digital tokens based on the TRC-10 and 20 standards, along with Tron dApps.
It should be noted that Justin Sun, CEO of Tron, mocked the high-profile association in a cryptic tweet on October 26, 2019. At that time, the crypto poster boy hinted that Tron “will be associated with a mega corporation of one hundred one billion dollars next week. «
Tron seeks to displace Ethereum as the access platform for Blockchain dApps
Since the unforgettable frenzy of the initial coin offering (ICO) of 2017, Ethereum has been by far the largest and most successful smart contract platform that has attracted hundreds of thousands of developers and coders from around the world to play with decentralized ideas
However, competitors, including Tron and EOS, are observing pole position hostage for several years. This is evident from recent developments in the TRX and EOS ecosystems that testify to their determined efforts to promote the widespread adoption of dApps.
