What Can Blockchain Bring to a Mobile Developer in 2020?
summary
Mobile developers will see concrete blockchain uses: user identity via BIP39 mnemonic keys stored hardware-backed in Android Keystore, off-chain data stored on IPFS with on-chain immutable smart contracts for logic (illustrated by a DAO split example), and tool choices like Zengo and web3 stacks. The talk covers tradeoffs such as gas fees, replication/storage bloat, and an experiment that showed many small transactions can incur large total fees, and recommends local key generation plus zero-knowledge patterns to improve privacy.
