Optiemus has yet to roll out the BlackBerry Evolve and Evolve X, but already there's news of limited edition models that could end up being released.

Blass didn't dip into any further details, so there's not much else to really go off here, but discussions surrounding mobile devices, cryptocurrencies, crypto wallets, and blockchain hit a high thanks to HTC and the announcement of their 'Exodus' blockchain phone.
Whatever Optiemus may have planned here certainly doesn't seem on the same level of HTC's thinking by any means, but pairing crypto wallets with BlackBerry security wouldn't be a bad thing either.
