I wouldn't be surprised if there was a competition type of strategy that they are employing. What better way than to force market dispersion and then to introduce their new product. The funny thing is that I think they want Bitcoin around, but they don't want to be involved with it so they can push their item.
[As a note, I don't think we can call this a war of the titans per se. I think Apple is sitting on like 10x the market cap of Bitcoin in pure cash reserves. Once again, that is just reserves.]

Sure you are right. And Apple is a huge competitor. They want their new product to be best ever like always. But they are cutting their own chair.
Like I sad before. I will never use any "i" shit again.
I already sold my iPhone 5c.
Yeah, they always want their item to be perceived as either "revolutionary" or the "best." What the BTC community needs to do is to is to challenge them on the territory that BTC had worked to hard to create. If Apple does release something akin to BTC, this community needs to react accordingly. Unfortunately, just not using their products has very little impact on their ginormous corporation.
Guess you're right.. but seems like many computer geeks are using Bitcoins - many of them are apple users.
If all of bitcoin fans will stop using apple hardware it might mean something for apple $$.
I always though that Apple is creative and great company.
Now I will NEVER again recommend apple for ANYONE.
Fuck them.
