CoinVoice has recently learned that according to Decrypt, Seattle-based Dangerous Things and VivoKey Technologies use NFC and RFID technology to launch a cryptocurrency wallet that can be implanted under the human skin to enable secure cryptocurrency transactions.

According to officials, "These wallets are hardware wallets that are used to send cryptocurrency. Your mobile app is your interface, but it does not have any private keys. The private keys and the actual signing of Bitcoin transactions or crypto transactions are all done in the chip." The implantable device Apex Flex retails for $349.

Several different Bitcoin and cryptocurrency wallets are currently supported. These include: Satochip wallet, Seedkeeper app, and Status IM keycard wallet. These wallets are for different blockchain networks.

Dangerous Things and VivoKey, founded in 2013 and 2017 respectively, specialize in custom-installed near-field communication (NFC) and radio-frequency identification (RFID) technologies inside the human body. [Original link]
