#Novi digital wallet

Facebook is starting to roll out a small pilot of the Novi digital wallet app in Guatemala and the United States. Novi is a digital wallet that aims to help people send and receive money abroad instantly. Novi uses digital currencies that make sending money as easy as sending a message, starting with USDP (Pax Dollar). "The goal for Novi has been and always will be to be interoperable with other digital wallets and we believe a purpose-built blockchain for payments, like Diem, is critical to deliver solutions to the problems that people experience with the current payment system. Novi is Facebook's new name and brand for its digital wallet, enabling people to send and hold Libra digital currencies. Samsung has introduced a new Digital Home Key feature in Samsung Wallet that allows Samsung Galaxy users to unlock compatible smart door locks using their smartphones. It expands Samsung Wallet’s digital key system, which was previously used mainly for cars, to now include home door locks. After setup, the digital key can be added to Samsung Wallet during the lock’s onboarding process.
