#AppleCryptoUpdate
Apple’s moving fast on crypto. A recent update to the iOS App Store rules now allows external crypto payments and NFT purchases in iPhone apps. In other words, apps can link to outside wallets and marketplaces instead of forcing in‑app purchases. And Binance is making crypto even easier: it just teamed up with Worldpay to add Apple Pay (and Google Pay) as a way to buy crypto on its platform. Even merchant payments are going crypto – startup Mesh announced that shops will soon accept Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. via Apple Pay. Taken together, these moves could bring millions of iPhone users into Web3. Indeed, analysts note Apple is “getting serious” about blockchain – recent job listings hint at NFT and crypto payment projects. Exciting times for Apple 🍎
