In a recent quick interview with the Wall Street Journal, the CEO of AT&T, Randall Stephenson, has noted the blockchain technology as the most exciting technology.

AT&T is a U.S.-based multinational telecoms conglomerate. It’s the second largest mobile services provider and the leading provider of fixed phone services in the U.S.

Stephenson said that blockchain is the technology that would hit the next couple of years due to its idea of “really, really great security and everything that we’re doing online. It’s a game changer.”

In fact, blockchain may be an innovative breakthrough not only for fintech industry, but also for mobile services. In addition, a blockchain-based startup Pundi X previously has presented its own and the very first blockchain smartphone in the world — XPhone.

Given this and not only, it’s no surprise that AT&T sees blockchain as a tech with a borderless potential. It’s should be pointed out, that not only in the U.S. consider decentralized ledger tech as a game changer.

Earlier, Japanese telecom giant Softbank reportedly launched a blockchain-based service, which allows clients to make mobile P2P payments through different mobile operators. The technology was developed in partnership with blockchain startup TBCASoft, as well as Synchronoss, which provided a communication protocol based on SMS, called Rich Communication Service (RCS).
