Vitalik Buterin appears to have financially supported ethOS, a project touted as the world’s first Ethereum-based mobile operating system. Data from Arkham shows that Buterin transferred 199.9 ETH, worth over $517,000, to a Gnosis Safe multi-signature contract, which is believed to be a donation to ethOS. This open-source project, developed by Freedom Factory, was initially launched on select Android devices in late 2022 and redeployed in 2023.
In comparison, Solana Labs introduced the Saga mobile device in June 2022, built on Android OS and pre-loaded with Solana dapps. Despite slow initial sales, Saga 2.0 saw a significant improvement with 100,000 units pre-ordered within a month. While Saga currently appears ahead, both ethOS and Saga are taking different paths toward merging blockchain and mobile technology, positioning themselves as potential competitors in this evolving market.
