#AppleCryptoUpdate New in the World of Cryptocurrencies (Quietly)

Apple has not launched a token, but it has done something bigger.

After years of cautious steps - banning mining, app store restrictions, and preventing cryptocurrency payments - things have turned around. In May 2025:

- App Store rules changed: Developers can now link to external cryptocurrency payments and NFT platforms.

- Apple Pay x Bitcoin: Through Mesh, users can now pay with BTC, and merchants receive stablecoins.

- NFT Freedom: Buying from outside the app? No longer prohibited.

Add to that: Coinbase + Apple Pay, 274 million WalletConnect sessions, and a wave of decentralized apps looking to enhance mobile user experience.

Apple hasn't completely retreated - but it has handed the keys to cryptocurrency developers.
