Looking at the recent announcement from the Mobile Business Summit, plus the rumors going on in the crypto community, there are potentially six projects

The Six Coin are

Bitcoin and Ethereum

The two main cryptocurrencies were shown in the Samsung presentation. The obvious reasoning for the top two cryptocurrencies to be involved would most likely relate to digital payment methods.

The Samsung S10 will feature Europay, Mastercard and Visa (EMV) contactless payment abilities, with global payments activated, the device will operate as a point-of-sale (POS) device.

Most likely using Bitcoin and Ethereum as payment currencies. There could potentially be more, but at this time those two are the only mentioned.

Enjin (ENJ)

Enjin appears to be the wallet of choice for Samsung, with the logo of Enjin appearing in the Samsung presentation on the Mobile Business Summit. The mobile operator appears to have partnered with Enjin to assist with their own blockchain wallet. Enjin is a blockchain eco-system that focuses on gaming, but also offers the "World's most secure mobile cryptocurrency wallet. Made for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin & ERC20 ERC721 ERC1155 Tokens". Considering that, there is potential that Samsung will add ERC20 tokens and Litecoin, possibly also including a gamification aspect and non-fungible tokens (NFT) into their wallet.

Basic Attention Token (BAT)

On a leaked image in the possession of Asia Crypto Today, the logo of Basic Attention Token (BAT) is visible in the Enjin Wallet on in the Samsung Blockchain keystore. This has sparked rumors of a partnership between Samsung and BAT. Basic Attention Token focuses on digital advertising, and is integrated in the Brave web browser, through which users can tip content creators with BAT. Content creators can then purchase ads on the BAT advertising platform. It's still a rumor based on one leaked image, but could the Brave browser be coming to Samsung as well?

ICON (ICX)

One of the offerings that the Samsung digital wallet will also offer is Digital ID. ICON has previously been mentioned to have partnered with Samsung in mid 2018. Both companies are based in Korea so there is a good chance that they would collaborate. ICON had previously spoken about their CHAIN ID service, the world’s first blockchain joint authentication service. While not much has been said about it in recent months, CHAIN ID makes use of ICON's Loopchain platform that connects an ecosystem of blockchain communities through ICON. CHAIN ID looks set to allow digital identification to become the new form of unlocking your smartphone and safely transacting. "CHAIN ID prevents single points of failure such as hacking attempts and will allow users to experience a more convenient and reliable environment for making financial transactions" according to an ICON Medium post.

Cosmo Chain (COSM)

Cosmo Chains dApp Cosmee is also present in the Samsung presentation, ensuring that it will be involved in the Samsung digital wallet. While the exact reason why this dApp would feature from the start is unclear, Cosmo Chain focuses on connecting customers and companies through a mutually beneficial beauty ecosystem. The Cosmee dApp claims to be the "World’s first blockchain-based beauty community platform". Also noted, is that Cosmee is partnered with ICON.
