Trezor to Implement Bitcoin Cash Addresses

• https://news.bitcoin.com

After seeming to be outright hostile to incorporating Cashaddr, a way to distinguish easily between bitcoin core and bitcoin cash addresses, popular hardware cold storage wallet company Trezor confirmed its integration is on the way.

Cold Storage Wallet Maker Trezor to Integrate Cashaddr for BCH

Twitter bitcoin cash advocate, Jason Elliott, began tweeting to hardware, cold storage wallet makers as to when their users could expect integration of Cashaddr, a bitcoin cash (BCH) ecosystem adopted standard for addresses to help limit confusion. Within the thread, Bach N. of Trezor responded, affirming Cashaddr to be in development for Trezor. His response came complete with a Github link, which appeared to confirm the tweet.

The Github leads to a Trezor MCU started the beginning of this year. Jochen Hoenicke is the developer/author of Cashaddr #285. It has three commits, and includes Satoshi Labs' Pavol Rusnak as a repository participant. Though it stops at the end of February, the most detail comes around the middle of that month.
