HIGHLIGHTS
OnePlus posted a video teaser showcasing cryptocurrency
Video has co-founder Carl Pei making the announcement
The video also features a gold-coloured coin
When Chinese mobile manufacturer OnePlus on Wednesday revealed that its next smartphone will have an iPhone X-like notch, it might have surprised many fans. However, the company has gone on to its unconventional ways as it has launched a new teaser showcasing its own cryptocurrency. After the hype over Bitcoin, cryptocurrency has become the fad of 2018, as big companies have already jumped on the bandwagon. Similarly, OnePlus may unveil its own cryptocurrency initiative - perhaps a secure locker on the phone. However, there is a chance that the teaser could also be an early April Fool's prank by the company.

OnePlus, known for its April Fool's pranks, in a 26-second video titled "Change is coming," suggested a cryptocurrency related announcement is about to take place in the coming days. In the video, the company's co-founder Carl Pei claimed that the manufacturer is now setting out to "reimagine one of the most fundamental elements of our everyday lives - currency." Also, a few seconds into the video, a text says "Blockchain Meets Never Settle."
