#AppleCryptoUpdate As of May 2025, Apple has made significant strides in embracing cryptocurrency with its latest updates. Following a U.S. court ruling related to its antitrust battle with Epic Games, Apple has relaxed App Store restrictions, allowing crypto apps to facilitate external payments and support NFT transactions without hefty fees. Additionally, Apple has integrated Mesh’s technology into Apple Pay, enabling seamless crypto payments using BTC, ETH, and stablecoins like USDC. This move, coupled with a $100 billion buyback plan and a 4% dividend increase, signals a strategic pivot toward the digital economy. While this could boost Web3 adoption, it raises questions about regulatory challenges and market volatility.
