In the past 2 month we have been collaborating with this amazing project by Sirin Labs! Today after a long wait we’re happy to see that the Finney device has been finally launched on November 29th -- FINNEY™

This Why Finney is really important for our Blockchain Gaming industry.

The global gaming market will reach over $115 billion in 2018. At over $50 billion, the mobile gaming industry accounts for nearly half of all global gaming revenue. For 2017, mobile gaming apps accounted for more than 80% of all app revenue from Apple's iOS App and Google Play Stores. The growth of the mobile gaming industry has also given way to whole new and emerging classes of gamers in addition to driving up time spent and play frequency from previously existing demographics. Today, mobile games are more popular among women than men and are played increasingly more by older consumers than teens. The rise of mobile technology has formed a perfect foundation for the mobile gaming industry’s success. A person can now fit a video game in their pocket and take it with them anywhere. Specific advancements like unlimited data plans, faster processing speeds, and higher quality graphics have also set the stage for more engaging gameplay than previously possible, With the Blockchain technology emerging into the gaming industry one of the biggest problems dapps face right now is that they’re difficult to use. To start playing CryptoFighters for example, you’d have to buy some ether, install the MetaMask Chrome extension or download Trust Wallet, send the ether to your MetaMask or Trust Wallet, find a fighter you’d like to purchase, put through a blockchain transaction using a scary looking popup that asks for a gas price and limit (new users have no idea what these are), wait a few minutes or hours for the transaction to go through. Then each in-game action such as battling or selling a fighter requires you to use that same MetaMask pop up window and confirm your action. With the finney you will have everything in one place without the need to be a computer genius. The premier cyber-protected, blockchain-enabled smartphone with built-in cold storage wallet, and unique Safe Screen for secure crypto transactions is a great device for gaming and cryptocurrency holders.
