The idea of Made in USA iPhones sounds patriotic — but it’s nearly impossible. Apple has spent decades building a hyper-efficient supply chain across Asia. You can’t just pack that up and ship it to Texas.
Each iPhone has 2,700+ parts from 187 suppliers across 28 countries. China still handles 85% of assembly, while Korean tech powers the touchscreens and Taiwan’s TSMC delivers the chips. Even when glass is made in Kentucky — it’s just a tiny piece of a global puzzle.

Apple tried making phones in America — remember the Motorola factory in Texas (2013)? High costs, low demand, and slow output. It failed fast.
Now, Apple is diversifying to India (16% of iPhones built there) and aiming for 20%. But make no mistake: the core parts are still Asian — and they’re not moving west anytime soon.

Why does this matter for crypto?
Just like the iPhone, Bitcoin is global. It doesn’t need one country — it runs on decentralized trust. In a world built on cross-border tech and supply webs, crypto fits the narrative perfectly.
Tech is global. Crypto is borderless. The future won’t be built in one place — it’ll be built everywhere.
