The team of Sony Corporation, the Japanese technology giant, stated about the launch of a new product in it latest

press release

.

According to the document, the

cryptocurrency wallet

did not get a name yet, all we know that the new digital storage uses IC smart card technology to communicate with the Bitcoin network or other cryptocurrencies.

Developers think the main advantage is that there is no need to connect it via USB-port. Security is provided by a tamper-proof high-security module inside the IC card for storing a private key.

It is noted that the crypto wallet will not only receive currencies, it is also suitable for performing other functions:

“This IC card-type cryptocurrency hardware wallet technology not only manages the private keys used for cryptocurrency transactions, but also manages private keys used for other purposes, such as those for permitting the use of personal information using blockchain technology. It is an infrastructure technology with multiple possible applications.”

Unfortunately, it is not reported yet whether anyone is able to purchase the contactless hardware wallet from Sony.
