In Tallinn and Riga, there is only one Samsung store, while in Vilnius there are 3 stores, all with the capacity to process crypto payments. In addition to these cities, CopPay also has a network of merchants using its platform in Portugal.

It is important to note that Samsung will not only implement the option of accepting cryptocurrencies in physical stores. There are plans in the short term that online stores will also receive cryptos, according to information revealed by the company.

Earlier this year, the company revealed that it was planning to enter the ASICS market by manufacturing its own crypto mechanical chips, a decision that resulted in significant growth during the first quarter of 2018.
