#AppleCryptoUpdate Apple's recent crypto updates significantly enhance its support for digital assets and blockchain technology. Key changes include enabling third-party crypto wallets to use iPhone NFC for tap-to-pay transactions with stablecoins like USDC, implementing post-quantum encryption (PQ3) in iMessage for future-proof security, updating App Store guidelines to allow crypto and NFT-related apps under regulatory compliance, and preparing to allow sideloading of apps in the EU. These developments position Apple as more open to Web3 innovation, although its 30% in-app purchase fee remains controversial.
