HTC, the mobile phone manufacturer with more than 20 years of experience in the sector, has announced the presentation of its new smartphone HTC Exodus, with which they want to expand the blockchain ecosystem creating the first phone dedicated to DApps and decentralized security.

“We believe we can help reshape the internet with the HTC Exodus. Join us and together we will make decentralization a reality.”

Phil Chen will be in charge of this project and, through an article in Medium, in charge of giving the news of this launch and where he has stated things such as:

“I want to see a world where the end consumers can truly own their data (browsing history, identity, assets, wallets, emails, messaging, etc) without the need for central authorities. There is a lot of work ahead of us, but I believe the mobile hardware layer can contribute significantly to our new decentralized world.”

Chen started working for HTC in 2007 as a product manager and started to build the first Android phones in the world. In 2015 Horizons Ventures joined and so he announced his return to HTC for this project:

“After two amazing years at Horizons Ventures, I have decided it is time for me to take on a new challenge. This time, I’ll be coming back to HTC (previously helped create the HTC Vive) as their Decentralized Chief Officer, specifically to focus on blockchain & cryptocurrency initiatives for HTC.”

The presentation of the HTC Exodus is scheduled for next Wednesday, May 23, but its release date is still unknown, although there are rumors that it will be in the end of the year.
