This looks like it, maybe why we are once again going up after the big drop off.
This might really start things rolling.

It looks like Apple has updated its app developer guidelines today to allow for Bitcoin apps.

The new clause under section 11.17, which was flagged by folks on Twitter like investor Bill Lee today https://twitter.com/westcoastbill/status/473555837982900226, reads:

Apps may facilitate transmission of approved virtual currencies provided that they do so in compliance with all state and federal laws for the territories in which the app functions.

That sounds like Bitcoin!

Huge step for Bitcoin, weather you're team android or iphone!

Yes. There is a significant number of Apple users that were locked out of the mobile wallet. Hopefully Apple learned a good lesson about bit coin from this.

I'm happy that Apple has taken this decision ..  Wink
Me too. Now we just have to wait for the devs to make something. It would be cool if you could buy apps with bitcoin but I doubt Apple would do that.

I would love to see an app version of bit coin qt. Probably too much data to store on a portable though.

Well, it's still weird how Apple firstly took down a Bitcoin app, but let a Dogecoin app pass.

The reason I don't care too much is because of HTML5 wallets and that android exists.

Obviously I'd prefer all Bitcoin wallets available on iOS, however.

The comments say the app developer is a scammer and it's not safe to use the application.

mining is so 2012-2013
June 07, 2014, 11:45:29 AM
anyone seen any wallets on the app store?
as of now I have not

From what I read one company with the function to send bitcoin had apps and people had sent through it, but it was only in about 10 countries, and the US wasn't one of them. 

Apple makes an app store for each country, so the content of the app stores very a lot. 
I'm in AUS and I currently do not see anything

If you are in AUS, can you find an app called coinjar?

Bitcoin, you have made it!

Apple haters say what you want, but if Apple has stamped bitcoin as okay, others will follow. 

The fact of the matter is that Apple has a well defined and very conservative line.  If bitcoin is good enough for Apple, lots of other organizations will think it is okay and good enough for them too. 

First Apple, and now a few days later Facebook is allowing apps for tipping in crypto.

apple seems to have a only baseline for btc and some bitcoin ticker but i havent seen any wallet application from them
well hopefully they will update it soon its nice to have an on the go wallet while you are away from your computer and using an apple phone when android is not available


Blockchain wallet app is still up and running for jb'd devices, non jbd though had to get them prior 12/13.

The appstore even had a cpu miner for mining scrypt coins only hashing at a measly 32khs, u had to set up a stratum proxy elsewhere though, perfect for when everyones iphone is mining for your account.  Grin

AAPL should allow Bitcoin wallet apps provided the source is available for peer review.



how does it work and what kind of application is that?  Shocked can you pm me the details Grin
