I am not sure whether it will make any significant change because everyone have heard about bitcoin unless you are living in a isolated island without the outside world news, but majority does not know how and what to do in the market and they think it is a geek market and unless you break that jinx and make sure that every Jack and Harry can follow the guidelines on how to purchase and save the coins properly, you wont see the general population getting interested in it, having a bitcoin symbol could trigger some people to find out about the market, slow and steady we will win the race.

IOS have give bitcoin symbol on google keyboard, I think will have big effect for bitcoin and altcoin at the future with price will grow up. I hope will have new product and companies want to accepted bitcoin and altcoin as their payment for the future.

How can adding one symbol in IOS have an effect in the increase of the price of bitcoins? I do not see the correlation between the two stated causes. Although it might make people curious about the said symbol, concluding that it will have a significant effect on its price is unwarranted.

Most iOS user are educated and if bitcoin symbol added in iOS, i dont think it will give big effect. Most of iOS user must be already know about cryptocurrency and blockchain but perhaps with adding symbol they interesting to invest in crypto

the addition of the bitcoin symbol into iOS is not a big influence in bitcoin price movements, the addition of the bitcoin symbol only makes it easier for people to give bitcoin writing, and that will have a big influence when there is good news happening in bitcoin.

How can one symbol effectively influence the price movement of bitcoin? There are various factors to consider when analyzing the price movement of cryptocurrencies and concluding that one symbol will make such a huge price movement is fallacious. One positive effect of it is that, it gives awareness to individuals who are not knowledgeable about the cryptocurrency world.

Well its a small thing but it can bring awareness to people about cryptocurrency especially to those who are not updated to whats the current trend in the internet.

It might not be big deal for others but for us crypto enthusiasts its nice seeing such symbol in ios as well as in other device.

Its awareness for crypto community in the middle people said crypto is a buble. If iOS adding bitcoin symbol, there must be something big will coming and thats must be good for bitcoin community. Soon or later people will familiar with bitcoin in any device

of course this will be an additional trust for middle and upper middle class investors. I am sure that getting familiar is certainly not an obstacle for them to read opportunities for cryptocurrency, by investing further, it will certainly have a positive impact on the development of crypto

I can honestly say that I've never typed the Bitcoin symbol in my entire life. If someone outside here sent it to me it might take me a few seconds to figure out what they're referring to.

Traitor! You infidel!! Grin

But seriously, I don't see people using it.
If it's the same as on Android, where you have to go to symbols, tap and hold on the $ and then select BTC it's a pain in the ass
I would type faster "bitcoin" than going through all of that.

how many people even know to hold down the $ sign to get the dropdown menu? i've had an android for a long time and i didn't even know that function existed until reading this story.

and of course, they didn't even add the bitcoin symbol to the android app. seems totally weird to me. google and android go hand in hand usually.

i would be very surprised if there were even 100k gboard users on iphone. among them, few will probably even notice this. Cheesy

It means Google has recognised that bitcoin is not a passing fad that will go away, this baby is here to stay for the long run. I'm going almost all in with crypto, last chance before the train leaves

What a symbol. lol. This is just a symbol to attract attention, if people meet too much can cause interest. It is not even known where it was added.
We can say that Android is not stay away from this developments, even more advanced. As others are said, the S10 will support the crypto wallet.

Speculation?

I still don't get why Google add it to iOS but not Android. And this certainly brings nothing except maybe acceptance that Bitcoin is going more mainstream (people, in general, have heard or know about it).

Even if the only thing it brings is the recognition of Bitcoin becoming more popular, it's definitely not nothing. We all have been discussing cryptocurrencies for years, we remember a lot of ups and downs and various claims of people and companies. It seems like we are a big community, but there aren't even 100 million crypto users in the world. And many people who heard of it either know that it's the money of drug dealers or that it's a bubble/ponzi. The fact that reputable companies add the symbol of this currency proves that they don't think it's one of these. In this particular case the symbol is available along with thos of fiat currencies, which also means an important and not very common recognition of bitcoin as a currency rather that pseudo-security or commodity.

It is just creating awareness man, it can't hurt. I mean its not a huge deal, it would have been a big deal if it was 5 years ago, but right now whenever you ask someone if they know what "bitcoin is" they usually do, they are aware of its existence.
5 years ago when I first started to actually make some decent money thanks to bitcoin I wasn't really getting through to people, I was trying to tell them how I make my money and what bitcoin is and most of the time they didn't know what it was.

Today even elderly people (not like 80+ but more like 50+ types) now what bitcoin is. Hell my father who is 60 years old called me up about some news he found about bitcoin online. That's why the app icon is not really a huge deal but its always better to have that than not have it.

It will really turn to a positive impact simply because some IOS user will notice the symbol of bitcoin and afterwards they tend to search it and they will try to buy bitcoin. So if they tend to buy bitcoin the demand on market will increase so the result is high price on market.

As I was saying above, you first need to find it.
But if you honestly think that somebody who has an iPhone and who has probably heard about BTC a thousand times before and decided not to buy, is going to do so now because of a fancy symbol on his keyboard you really need to get in touch with reality.

at least this helps promote bitcoin. of the many who see it will certainly create a new bitcoiner, and this is what will potentially become an investor, so that it can increase demand for BTC

Rather than promote, something like this infiltrates. If you start to become interested in BTC (my first time using that) and then you notice that it's already embedded in the services you already use it adds an extra sheen of confidence.

I think it will have a positive impact on bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, because iOS is one of the well-known brands in the field of technology development, therefore the presence of the bitcoin symbol in iOS products means it is a pretty good bitcoin marketing strategy because it works with known brand, this will increase investor confidence and interest in bitcoin and automatically this will increase the price of bitcoin.

Like almost all 'good news' there is no effect. It's another bit of progress to add to your wank bank that forms the basis for a better future.

The gradual (albeit slow) integration of cryptocurrencies into devices used commonly in society has both psychological and practical incentive of making for wider adoption of cryptourrency.It is not difficult to imagine that a large chunk of persons will be using cryptos in the coming years especially as it is already economically more efficient.

Yes I agree, this is such a small thing but it kind of normalises
bitcoin and places it with the other valid currency symbols ie. £$€

the only other way to add the symbol is to use an image or bbcode
which obviously doesn't work everywhere
