I believe It is a good signal for the market to come

Thanks for sharing. This is good news. I think that the more blockchain is applied in different industries the better. People will become more familiar with the concept. It will gradually become more mainstream. This will, in turn, make it easier for people to understand cryptocurrencies. I can understand that it'll help with logistics. I thought the last big was interesting:
It would be nice if they could elaborate a bit on how that would work.

It would be interesting to see if Samsung would develop their own blockchain or use an already existing product.

does paraphrasing can be considered plagiarism?? next time to avoid such effort just copy and paste a little about the article then share the source it still legal if you do that. this is a Bloomberg article.

I believe with this news other tech giants will follow suit. Overall it is good for crypto in general. More of the news.

Wow this is really a great news for crypto in general. It shows blockchain is going main stream.
