This collaboration is said to be mutually beneficial venture that seeks to drive more traffic to bitcoin.com as well as present Exodus 1 to the crypto community as a simple crypto-trading phone.

Exodus 1 software update will now contain a pre-loaded Bitocoin.com wallet, and Exodus 1 users will not need to download a BCH wallet from an app store anymore. 
<h2>Pros of the Partnership</h2>
The partnership offers benefits to both HTC and bitcoin.com. BCH will benefit from Exodus 1 high-security features. 

According to bitcoin.com's <a href="https://news.bitcoin.com/htc-adds-native-bitcoin-cash-support-to-its-flagship-smartphone/">announcement</a>, the secure built-in wallet is now capable of carrying out <a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/crypto/bch-can-be-the-global-coin-for-daily-spending-says-italian-crypto-executive/">BCH transactions</a>.

Zion Vault, Exodus 1 key management software will sign off on all BCH transactions. Phil Chen, HTC'S Chief Decentralization Officer, said:
<blockquote>"The Zion Vault is happy to support BCH natively in hardware, so security goes hand-in-hand in the blockchain as an alternative to dominate payment rails and platforms."</blockquote>
Bitcoin.com will list Exodus 1 as well as the upcoming Exodus 1s on their online store. Exodus 1s, which is scheduled for launch later in 2019, will offer the same BCH support as its predecessor.
