The recent release update of Jibrel Wallet for Android is part of a bigger picture. The main feature of that release is an integration with Jticker — our engine for fetching price data caches from various crypto exchanges. Jticker will be used in several Jibrel products, with Jibrel Wallet for Android being the pioneer.
For the Jibrel Wallet, Jticker allows users to see how the price of their crypto portfolio has been changing over time, and to monitor real time price graphs for each ERC-20 token they have in their wallets. Now that we have started with the Android version of Jibrel Wallet, we plan to be integrating Jticker with the iOS and Web versions of Jibrel Wallet in 2020.
Additionally, we plan for Jticker to have various other uses, including in the upcoming Jibrel platform. We expect building out an in-house price engine such as Jticker to offer several advantages for Jibrel in the future. As a parallel example from the past, consider Jcash, where building an in-house solution has yielded several bigger-picture advantages (such as passing regulatory requirements, and developing a pilot program with the Central Bank of Jordan). For more information on Jibrel’s product strategy, check out the Q3 Founder Q&A Video.
Ultimately, beyond its use in the latest Android update of Jibrel Wallet, Jticker will take on a life of its own. Although Jticker is a backend app (and thus can’t be used without integration with a user-facing service such as the Android Jibrel Wallet), it’s nonetheless a backend app that can be integrated with a number of different user-facing services . We look forward to sharing further information regarding Jticker’s integration with Jibrel products and services. Meanwhile, be sure to check it out in our latest update to Jibrel Wallet for Android!
