#AppleCryptoUpdate In May 2025, Apple did not officially enter the cryptocurrency market, but recent developments have sparked speculation about its future involvement. The company announced a substantial $500 billion investment in U.S. operations, focusing on artificial intelligence, manufacturing, and engineering. While this announcement did not mention digital assets, industry experts suggest that such a significant investment could lay the groundwork for Apple's potential entry into the crypto space, especially given the more favorable regulatory environment under the Trump administration [1].Additionally, Apple has updated its iPhone Wallet to allow third-party developers access to the device's NFC payment chip. This change enables users to set third-party payment apps as their default, potentially including those that support cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or stablecoins such as USDC [2]. Despite these developments, Apple CEO Tim Cook has stated that the company has no immediate plans to integrate cryptocurrency into its business model, although he owns Bitcoin [3]. While Apple remains cautious, these moves indicate a growing openness to digital assets, suggesting that the company may explore deeper involvement in the cryptocurrency sector in the future.
