All-in-One Crypto App Demo (News, Trading, Predictions)

In this live interview at Hapoen, Matt from Bitcoin.com News sits down with Shrey Pandey, tech lead and engineer at Bitcoin.com, to demo the company's new all-in-one crypto app. The app is designed as a news-first platform that seamlessly integrates media, trading, and prediction features, aiming to bridge the gap between information and action. Shrey explains that the app was developed over a year, with a focus on making crypto accessible to the 80% of users who don't understand wallets or blockchain mechanics. It allows users to sign in via social accounts, automatically creating a wallet, and offers features like news digest, audio articles, video playback, a 'Satoshi Herald' e-ink reading mode, and a terminal for real-time market analysis. A standout feature is the ability to directly place predictions on event markets linked to news stories, with integration of Moonpay for instant crypto purchases. The app is available across iOS, Android, Apple Watch, and Apple TV, emphasizing cross-device continuity. Shrey also discusses the regulatory caution behind avoiding private chat features, opting instead for open social boards. Despite the intense development effort—completed in under two months by a small team—the app represents a bold step toward crypto's next major use case: media with embedded financial actionability.
