Is it likely for Apple to accept bitcoin as payments? Probably not as of now in my opinion. Is it impossible? Definitely not. I mean, unless that "someone" has a source for his/her claims, then it's pretty much irrelevant. Who knows if that "someone" just made a baseless claim just to get people to buy bitcoin. This might just be another tinfoil hat theory, just like the rumours in the past about Facebook straight up adopting Litecoin.

the longer, false information and claims like this are more prevalent, usually it is not a big company like Apple, Facebook, Google, but this often happens in ICO projects that often trick investors with the iming partnership of large companies like IBM and so on. And we should often to check and recheck again to make sure whether this is true or not

Just want to ask if anyone hear anything about this, I will post the same on other forums so I get it to many people as possible.

Someone told me that one of the largest companies in US is going crypto, it will start accepting crypto currencies in their local and online stores, and they will go further by integrating it in their electronic payment.

This all going to happen late in 2019, they will start by loosen up their eco system as it currently very tight.

He said a lot of things but I didn’t care much as I don’t know what was his source.

Few days ago, Apple announces that other manufacturers TV will support Air Play which is big as Apple never allow that on third party devices.

This reminded me of what he said, and made me think that he knows what he talking about, further more I assume now the company should be Apple.

So I f Apple start accepting crypto on their Apple Pay, it will going to have huge impact on the crypto market the prices should sky rocketing, everyone will follow Apple and probably do the same.

I have few crypto and based on the above If many confirms that they hear the same, I will buy more and hold selling them until end of 2019.

Accepting crypto by a particular company does not automatically translate to increase in the value of open source crypto that we all have access to and for the fact that Apple is accepting and other companies following that path still does not amount to that and the reason is simple. What they would do is to create their own kind of crypto that can be purchased with fiat and used solely on their platform just like all of the gift cards we see or the AliPay. It then means that other companies coming in would also want to be independent. The influence on open source crypto would only be marginal because of individuals who will be understanding that there is a new market in other to cash in on it.

never heard anything about Apple planning anything about Crypto, but if it does accept crypto, that will be a great kick.

You should have share us some links on what is your ‘someones’told you for evidence so some will believe in this claim but instead you put it here like to be a hearsay,apple is not announcing anything in regards accepting bitcoin or other altcoin this soon.and i believe in the near future,apple company is too secured just to enter this crypto community,i am nit saying anything bad about crypto but in apples position this is a risk and not to be considered

I think they have will consider it but I don't think it'll be soon...

Somewhere in the future the company of Apple will really approved to use cryptocurrency where you can exchange it in all product of Apple. If they going to accept cryptocurrency it will undergo in many procedure but I know it is really possible to happen.

Currently, various stock trading is experiencing a decline in prices, not least the technology company Apple. if they want to make crypto, it will make things worse. But it seems that Nasdaq already has its own strategy for the trading cryptocurrency.

It seems to me that this is a fake news because the apple has repeatedly stated that it is an opponent of cryptocurrency and does not see any promise in it

They are probably studying the blockchain technology to integrate on their system and I think that they have no plans at the moment on creating their own crypto since they are a big company but who knows what might in the future.

I think it's impossible. Apple is a huge electronic gigant. They are not interested in making their own currency or using some famouse. There is a small chance that it will happen in 2019.

I think. Today there are many big companies that accept crypto. and provide positive feedback to the crypto world. I saw that it was still in a plan. The CEO of Apple receives crypto well. even he became a supporter in several ICOs. so I think Apple will receive crypto quickly in the future.

i dont think so apple is a big giant they dont need to gamble that much in my opinion ,although they can adopt blockchain technology in future and that is different then going with crypto support,Microsoft was taking crypto as means of payment and being a competitor to apple they took their first step.which is quite good for crypto world.but as far as apple goes they have apple pay so they might built payment system around it.

This is a big company and Apple can do anything that can help their business to become stronger. Blockchain technology is great, and if Apple adapt this, we can expect a more good system from this company. If Apple is planning to do this, for sure more companies will adapt too and it makes this market more meaningful.

Apple as one of the biggest name in electronic and media has come a long way and the brand has already made name for itself and Apple starting to accept cryptocurrency as a means of payment on they platform will further increase the adaptation of digital currency in the market, apple have something like a token which is use for payments on the music app it call ITunes card.

It would be right if the person that told you about this development sourced it from an authentic news outlet still there have not been any big details as to regards apple going into cryptocurrency yet.
But there could be a possibility

I think if something like that happen, they will make their own crypto and accept it as payment. So it wouldn't really effect on bitcoin price and we know big company like that can do anything that they want.

But it can actually affect the whole market knowing Apple, a top company who trust cryptomarket can make the world realize how good cryptocurrency are. If this thing happen, more companies will follow and there's a possibility for Apple to get back all their loses for the past 3months.

If that thing can happen, let's hope it get realized. Because a lot of people might be happy if crypto can looked and adopted by big company like Apple. Even when some influencer talk good about it, it can make crypto boost.

For sure Apple is going to test something on the blockchain, but they won't do it publicly.
