samsung never claimed to offer the opposite of above

samsung WILL include a special encrypted memory chip allowing a special place to store sensative data such as private keys, and this means any private keys. including bitcoin

instead of just reading the title of forums, or media stories. people should try researching.

Hardware wallets include only keys. S10 will be a hardware wallet. So no blockchains. And no reason to "skip out" Bitcoin. No reason at all.
So don't just spread news rumors you don't understand, news meant only to pump certain coins.

Do you think bitcoin will crash and they just don't want to take the risk having their customers complain?

Or it could only be an upgraded software for Samsung Pay for all we know, but I'm also inclined to think that S10 will be a hardware wallet for some cryptocurrencies. So instead of spending $100-$300 on a new hardware wallet, shell out a couple hundred more and you'll get a flagship phone that can do more things than one--though phones are more susceptible to thefts and losses, anyhow.

I don't know, maybe the op is up to something. At least, there truly are articles by newsbtc.com and cryptodaily.co.uk about Samsung somehow supporting Ethereum and excluding Bitcoin. They are based on an unboxing video where the guy says it explicitly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XWmczWFLts&feature=youtu.be&t=368. This customer could have just not understood the whole thing, though, I think it's not enough evidence. And it's based on pre-released version, so maybe it's just a temporary thing that they already made a working thing for Ethereum, but not for Bitcoin yet. For now we just have a couple of videos that show that only Ethereum is mentioned in the list of supported cryptos in the built-in crypto wallet. We have to wait for official info before jumping to conclusions.

Wait, really? Doesn't it only keep your private keys in special storage? If so, that means they're still going to be exposed online when signing transactions unlike traditional hardware wallets.

I guess it really is a hardware wallet though, strictly speaking; just not a cold one. It's still better than nothing though, I suppose.

Yep, it won't include it by default, but it should be a relatively trivial task to get it to support it.
The big winner from the Galaxy S10 crypto marketing scheme is Ethereum.

Nope. The biggest in Enjin (ENJ).

That coin has a massive pumped after the news that Samsung will include them in their crypto wallet. But I will speculate that they will include bitcoin in their list, it's the number coin so it doesn't make sense if they will simply left it and will go for Ethereum as the flag bearer for their wallet.

You don't have to rely on rumors. The phone is already out and people have been testing them and releasing video reviews.
The phone includes what is called blockchain keystore and at the moment it only includes ETH wallet but the whole application even has a similar logo to Bitcoin.

They were releasing this in a hurry and included only one coin to test it out but many other coins will be available in the coming months. Some of them have already been announced. It's only a matter of downloading a software update.

There's no official information that they won't include Bitcoin!
