APPLE CRYPTO UPDATE – MAY 2025

Apple is cautiously expanding its crypto exposure through legal shifts and third-party integrations, while avoiding direct adoption.

Key Developments:

1. Court Ruling Enables iOS Crypto Payments

A U.S. federal court decision in Apple's Epic Games case now permits iOS apps to link to external payment systems—including those supporting crypto and NFTs.

2. Apple Pay Supports Stablecoins via Mesh

At Token2049, Mesh revealed that Apple Pay now allows stablecoin payments, letting merchants accept crypto through Apple's system via third-party integration.

Summary:

Apple isn't diving headfirst into crypto, but it’s quietly setting the stage. Legal wins for developers and integrations like Mesh hint at a more crypto-friendly Apple ecosystem ahead.
