The PIVX Mobile Wallet for Android Devices has been launched.



PIVX – Private Instant Verified Transaction has launched its mobile wallet for Android devices as of Friday July 28th, 2017.


The much-awaited Android mobile wallet for the PIVX network adds a key aspect of adoption to the privacy-centric cryptocurrency expanding its ecosystem. As this will afford its users the ability to carry the privacy-based cryptocurrency with them anywhere.


That is correct: It is ANDROID ONLY for the time being. Please take note of this.


PIVX fulfills part of its roadmap as it releases the first version of its mobile wallet to the public.

As a complement to the desktop version of wallets for the Windows, Mac, Linux and Raspberry operating systems, the mobile wallet has been in development for quite some time.

It is aimed at easing the portability issue for the transfer and other use of the anonymous peer-to-peer currency that offers total freedom.

PIVX users on the Android platform would now have easy and quick access to their accounts and be able to monitor their funds in their hands, aligning with the goal of the project to make users their private banks by carrying a fast, secure and fungible currency in their pockets.


The feature list of the PIVX mobile wallet includes:


  • Security – Use of existing decentralized network nodes, use of checkpoints, PIN app security

  • Privacy – No account creation required, no identity linking, locally stored private key, one-time encrypted file backup

  • Lightweight – Does not download full blockchain, so it’s very light on phone’s resources.

  • Ease of use – Ready to use immediately after install, Address book, QR scanner

  • Multilingual – Support of language translated XML files

  • Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallet – it only requires a single backup for all addresses.

  • Easy backup & restore GUI option in-wallet

  • Users can now download the PIVX mobile wallet on the Google Play Store while wallets for other mobile operating systems are currently being worked on.

Thanks for comparison with Dash.

It's been awhile since I posted on PIVX and I usually like to include that chart for people. It is a good one.

Thanks!

It has been a long wait but it's finally worth it. Big congrats to the developers and all stakeholders of PIVX.

Steem On and hope the bugs get worked out quickly.

@barrydutton sir amazing news and article it is most needed thing in present time it surely helps all steemians.

Free money, almost. Sometimes I think there are too many clone companys and they won't survive. But if everyone starts using cryptos over fiat I don't think there is enough platforms like this to meet coming demand.

Great points and I agree.

I watch PIVX when I watch and check my charts daily. Not once have I seen anyone discuss how stable their currency has actually been for the most part, these last MANY weeks of big time market volatility.

It has certainly impressed me as a numbers guy.

Thank you @barrydutton. This is a very interesting post. This information is very useful. Greetings friends :-)

The PIVX Mobile Wallet seems to be very good software. Many and good features for the users!

They are a very active community!

Thanks for the update. I'll be checking out the PIVX android wallet today.

Let me know back here and the readers here, what you think. I know many of the PIVX people read my posts, they will like and appreciate the feedback.

Good post. It is nice to have wallet on cellphone

It took DASH so long to get approved for Iphones, Jaxx had to remove functionality for a while to even get on Iphone while Dash and Apple dealt with whatever compliance issue they had. I don't even remember what the problem was anymore. It's curious that PivX is also launching Android only first. Hmmmmm.

Yes, I remember that --- it has always seemed to me apple is just hard to deal with.

I would rather never have anything launch until it is really ready and reliable but the MVP philsophy is present in Crypto -- Minimum Viable Product.

I just think it is sloppy to release stuff that is maybe only 70 or 90% tested etc but that is just me.

There's already enough issues in life to deal with.

Nice wallet! I will use this

Keep in mind the bugs noted here in the article.

Finally, been waiting for this but I also forgot lol, and thanks for posting so much informative/ helpful stuff so I don't have to go past my feed to find news that's relevant to me.

I love encouraging comments like this -- we all need to hear it, thanks!!

And you are welcome!!

I have no problem giving credit where credit is due, keep it up!

Very good, thanks for the article!

Thank You Barry for sharing and Thank You Jonelle for ReSTEEMing.

Hope You both have a Good Weekend... Cheers !!

Good hearing from you again..... thanks!!
