Trezor Model T Roadmap
Based on the February 27 press release Trezor chief executive Matej Zak disclosed plans to integrate new technology into the hardware wallets to improve compatibility with mobile devices. The proposed mobile application will provide Trezor users additional features to boost their experiences. As such, the user can buy and sell cryptocurrencies on the Trezor platform.

The press release revealed that Trezor would prioritize product development to cope with fierce competition in the industry. Meanwhile, the company announced to work the existing workforce to execute Model T strategic plans. Later, Trezor will outsource new talents to support the project to materialize.
As per Trezor’s findings, the new manufacturing approach will necessitate the firm to increase the minimum order quantities. Also, to operate the chip, the consumer will be equipped with the basic knowledge of running the wallet.
