Freedom Factory has announced the launch of the dGEN1, a mobile device designed to make onchain crypto transactions more accessible.

Set to ship in Spring 2025; the dGEN1 is positioned as an everyday carry (EDC) device that lets users interact with decentralized applications (dapps) without the need for third-party intermediaries or hidden fees.

“Crypto is no longer confined to desktop and browser applications, onchain is now seamless,” Freedom Factory CEO and dGEN1 co-creator Markus Haas said in a statement shared with Decrypt. He explained that by integrating Ethereum at the operating system level, the dGEN1 “removes the friction and complexity of crypto interactions,” freeing them from the limitations imposed by traditional platforms.

The dGEN1 is built around ethOS v4.0, an Ethereum-based operating system, and comes with a dapp Store that supports Ethereum and Layer 2 (L2) applications. Thanks to its L2 integration, the device allows for faster and cheaper transactions while eliminating the need for separate wallets or browser extensions. With an onboard light node, users can validate transactions directly on the device, adding an extra layer of security.
