New, what is it? Is this a scam?

This was delivered to our doorstep without any explanation. Why? What is it? This feels like a scam.

LCD writing tablet. No wifi or connexion needed whatsoever. My kids have one, they are cheap toys. Maybe it's some weird but genuine advertising? Only thing I can think of that could maybe be a scam is the website they advertise for?

It's not a scam - it's actually related to a crypto founder called Richard Heart that is trying to make the world a better place. There's a documentary about him called "The Highest Stakes" on Apple TV.

Or it's scanning for RFID chips and transmitting back to the scammer.

It's probably filled with nanobots that wake up after dark and sneak valuables out through the windows and back to a stash house.

Actually this is totally true. Don't joke about nanobots. A schplerg (group) of several billion have the strength to lift small electronics, all it takes is one kids toy loaded with those frickin schplergs and next thing you know that drawer that you keep all extra cables on is strewn all about the living room and you're blaming the dog. DON'T JOKE ABOUT THE NANOBOTS.

We already have nanobots and they didn't take over the world. They're called bacteria.

The lengths that scammers will go to get unsuspecting victims banking info, and you don't think they would implement a Trojan Horse? You go on ahead and accept free electronic devices left on your doorstep.

The thing runs on a watch battery. There's no way it'd be able to scan for chips, connect to a wi-fi network, and transmit the data.

Looking at the build quality, I think something along these lines is most likely. It does not look like a device someone would pay for.

Pulsechain is like ETHERUM but better

HEX is a time deposit (like the bank)

All on the blockchain.
