It's been over a year since we've seen the promos for it and it still hasn't hit the market?

By the time it does, there will be something better and more secure for people to use.

Pre ordered in 2013 because I loved the idea and wanted to support the technology. A year and a half later I'm still waiting. I emailed them yesterday and they said it would be here "in the spring", I'm thinking September optimistically.

I got mine about a week ago. I've used it at probably 15 different places, only had it fail once, at the very first place I tried to use it.

Complicating the company's roadmap is the absence of a specialized security microchip that is in the process of being adopted by the US credit card industry. When the consumer version of Coin launches next year, it will not contain such a chip. The company has said that it will only begin addressing that issue after its current product begins shipping next spring.


that's a negative, but it will be at least five yers before the magnetic stripe is phased out.
