Of all the emerging technologies tied to bitcoin, MEVU’s Wearable “bracelet” could be the niftiest device yet.

MEVU’s proof-of-concept bracelet is powered by Coinbase’s wallet API. It can deliver small bitcoin amounts with a flick of the wrist. The device is primarily meant for tips and other small-value transactions.

Apurv Mishra, CEO and co-founder of MEVU, said the company’s wearable wallet is mainly for tipping, whether in BTC, altcoins (possibly litecoin and dogecoin), or even something else.

“If we use bitcoin or any other currency, if it has the facility for tipping, I think that’s what people would want, ” Mishra told CoinDesk.
