Today's Story Highlights

Crypto Support in Samsung Galaxy S10 Could Fall Flat
The Samsung Galaxy S10, scheduled for launch on Feb. 20, likely will
incorporate a cryptocurrency wallet. "Samsung has a long history of
throwing everything it can think of, technology-wise, into its flagship
Galaxy S series smartphones," remarked Ken Hyers, research director at
Strategy Analytics. Most users aren't fully aware of their Galaxy S
phone capabilities, he noted.

Driving Smart Home Product Value Through AI Applications
Annual sales of all connected home devices are expected to exceed 520
million units by 2022, based on Parks Associates forecasts. Specific use
cases for artificial intelligence in the smart home will help drive
adoption of new devices and services as intelligent outcomes increase
product value. Security use cases are the leading drivers of adoption.

Marketing Mindfulness: A New Age of Digital Consciousness
In this era of stress and anxiety, being able to slow down, breathe, and
focus on the moment at hand are key skills for surviving and being
successful. Mindfulness has become a vital commodity, and those who can
coach others to live more mindfully are in particularly high demand. An
industry has grown up that offers everything from streaming yoga classes
to meditation apps.

CRM's Shift Toward Oligopoly
As markets mature, they trend toward oligopoly or even outright
monopoly. There isn't much difference, because an oligopoly has several
members instead of just one. Examples include electric power generation,
an oligopoly made up of vertically integrated monopolies in most areas,
and the airline industry -- an oligopoly made up of many airlines that
may have monopolies in regional hubs.
