“We will reduce the barriers to new experiences by gradually increasing the number of Galaxy models that support blockchain functions. We will also be expanding our service destination countries to Korea, the United States, and Canada. “

What is TRON?
TRON is a blockchain platform that is intended to support the free and limitless exchange of digital content through distributed storage technology. This innovation facilitates the cost-effective exchange of digital information.
TRON uses the blockchain to bridge the gap between content creators and their audience without having to turn to producers, managers or other middlemen.
The partnership between Samsung and TRON is expected to increase adoption among more smartphone users. And with the anticipated addition of cryptocurrency wallets to even budget Galaxy phones, TRON will benefit in terms of expanded access.
