Users must first mint a non-fungible token on the Base layer-2 network to redeem the NFT for the upcoming crypto-native device.
Freedom Factory — the team behind the ethOS operating system — has unveiled a new mobile device called the “dGen1” — an onchain device used to interact with Web3 applications, decentralized finance protocols, and to sign transactions on Ethereum.
The device is built on ethOS — a fork of the Android operating system — and features a built-in web browser, touch screen, audio speaker, and a separate screen that displays transaction metadata. However, dGen1 does not appear to have telecommunication capabilities.
A key feature of the dGen1 is the light node client on the device — meaning prospective users will not have to rely on third-party remote procedure call (RPC) nodes to interact with the blockchain.
