#苹果放宽加密规则 Apple's recent adjustments to its open policy in the iOS application ecosystem, especially in the European Union region, allowing third-party app markets, sideloading features, and guiding users to use external payment methods, have indeed created new opportunities for the popularization of crypto and Web3 applications. This shift is both a response to antitrust pressures and reflects Apple's gradual trend of opening up its ecosystem.

For the first time, Apple has allowed developers to guide users to complete payments through non-App Store channels within apps, such as NFT transactions and cryptocurrency purchases, thus bypassing the 30% 'Apple tax.' Apple has opened some private APIs, allowing third-party apps to use non-WebKit engines and a broader range of hardware capabilities. Despite this openness, Apple still emphasizes the review of piracy and illegal content.

Apple's open policy provides a critical springboard for Web3 applications to move from 'crypto geeks' to 'mainstream consumption.' In the short term, NFT transactions, blockchain games, and DeFi wallets may become the biggest beneficiaries; in the long term, the combination of virtual and real-world metaverse experiences and the creator economy may reshape the interaction model of the iOS ecosystem. However, regional policy, security risks, and development costs remain obstacles to overcome. In the future, if Apple promotes its EU experience globally, the 'iPhone moment' for Web3 may truly arrive.
