Electron Cash Wallet Now Available for Basic Feature Phones












Electron Cash Can Now be Installed on Nokia Style Feature Phones


 

Last February the Electron Cash lead developer, Jonald Fyookball, announced the development team would be funded by the firm Coingeek, and Electron Cash would launch a bunch of new features over the course of the year. So far the team has launched a new iOS version of the wallet and added a Coinshuffle plugin to the client’s desktop version. Now, this week the Electron Cash team has released a Java Micro-Edition of the wallet (J2ME) which makes the client available to feature phones much like the popular and less sophisticated Nokia phones.

 

“Electron Cash published a new wallet: The ‘J2ME’ version of Electron Cash. J2ME stands for Java Micro-Edition,” the Electron Cash lead developer explained in an interview with the publication Coingeek.

 

"With Electron Cash for J2ME, now users who only have access to basic ‘feature phones’ such as the Nokia 216 will still have access to a real Bitcoin Cash SPV wallet, with all the benefits that come with it, including controlling their own private keys and being able to restore their wallet from a mnemonic seed phrase. "


Over 1.3 Billion Feature Phone Users Can Now Use the Bitcoin Cash-Centric Wallet Electron Cash


 

Bitcoin Cash proponents are excited to see an Electron Cash client for feature phones as the wallet could help spread adoption in areas where basic phones are more prevalent. These areas would include Asia and Africa, and according to Counterpoint research there are 1.3 billion feature phone users worldwide.

 

The Electron Cash J2ME version source code is available for review on Github, explains the development team. “The original python code was rewritten in Java, mostly from scratch, in order to build this wallet. It is currently published on GitHub as an alpha release and is currently being reviewed and tested,” Fyookball emphasized.

The DRIFE Platform Aims to Disrupt the Transport Sector

DRIFE, a solution to centralized ride-hailing  ​ Drife.one  introduces the DRIFE platform, a decentralized transport ecosystem powered by the blockchain. DRIFE’s objective is to disrupt the existing ride-hailing business model and eliminate the corporate intermediaries involved in the transactions. It’s also a system designed to empower the value creators of the ride-hailing ecosystem. In the emerging market of private transport services, these value creators include drivers and community developers. Private transportation platforms have created a new paradigm for the industry.

However, in this comparative framework, traditi...
