1inch Network to Venture into the Hardware Wallet Industry

1inch Network, the popular decentralised finance (DeFi) aggregator, has announced plans to launch a one-of-a-kind crypto hardware wallet. 1inch Network is throwing its hat into the hardware wallet industry at a time when crypto enthusiasts are looking for self-custody options after the FTX fiasco.

Supported by a grant from the 1inch Foundation, the 1inch hardware wallet is being developed by an independent team within the 1inch Network. It is currently in the final stages of development, with an official launch and sales expected later this year.

The 1inch Hardware Wallet Will Have No Buttons and Feature a Touch Screen Display

In terms of features, the 1inch hardware wallet aims to differentiate itself from what is available in the market. The device will have the following features as part of its design.

  • A 2.7” E-Ink grayscale touch display supporting light/dark modes and will be fully air-gapped with no buttons or any wired connection
  • The screen will have a Gorilla Glass 6 surface, and its body will be made out of stainless steel
  • The device will be compact, with its size similar to that of a bank card. It will weigh 70 grams and will be 4mm thin
  • 1inch Hardware wallet will allow users to create and control several sets of wallets with different seed phrases. Each wallet will have a different pin code for access
  • Charging will be wireless, with its Li-Po battery expected to last up to two weeks
  • The 1inch Hardware wallet will come in five colours

1INCH/USDT is Yet to Break the $0.50 Resistance Area

Concerning price action, 1INCH has experienced a brief knee-jerk reaction due to the news of the project launching a hardware wallet. Data from Tradingview.com shows that 1INCH/USDT is up 2.47% for the day and trading at $0.458. Its green daily candle in the one-day chart below further confirms its slight bullishness in the crypto markets.

However, its daily MFI (green), MACD and RSI (red) indicate an ongoing pullback that could see the digital asset fall to its 50-day (red) moving average at the $0.42 price area.

Earlier in the week, 1INCH/USDT had failed to turn the 100-day (yellow) moving average as support after rejection at the $0.50 resistance area. A healthy pullback could provide enough momentum for the digital asset to break past this level in late January or early February.

  • The Bank of Japan is reportedly planning further interest rate hikes; some officials believe the neutral interest rate will be higher than 1%.

    according to insiders, Bank of Japan officials believe that before the current rate hike cycle ends, interest rates are likely to rise above 0.75%, indicating that there may be more rate hikes after next week's increase. These insiders said that officials believe that even if rates rise to 0.75%, the Bank of Japan has not yet reached the neutral interest rate level. Some officials already consider 1% to still be below the neutral interest rate level. Insiders stated that even if the Bank of Japan updates its neutral rate estimates based on the latest data, it currently does not believe that this range will significantly narrow. Currently, the Bank of Japan's estimate for the nominal neutral interest rate range is about 1% to 2.5%. Insiders said that Bank of Japan officials also believe there may be errors in the upper and lower limits of this range itself. (Golden Ten)

  • HSBC expects the Federal Reserve to refrain from cutting interest rates for the next two years.

    HSBC Securities predicts the Federal Reserve will maintain interest rates stable at the 3.5%-3.75% range set on Wednesday for the next two years. Previously, Federal Reserve policymakers lowered rates by 25 basis points with a split vote. The institution's U.S. economist Ryan Wang pointed out in a report on December 10 that Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell was "open to the question of whether and when to further cut rates at next year's FOMC press conference." "We believe the FOMC will keep the federal funds rate target range unchanged at 3.50%-3.75% throughout 2026 and 2027, but as the economy evolves, as in the past, it is always necessary to pay close attention to the significant two-way risks facing this outlook."
