When they really need to. But they'll fight it hard! Apple's business model is to lock everything down -- very closed indeed. This does not align with the goals of bitcoin, at least, how I perceive them.

tl;dr Apple = closed. BTC = open.

Apple is a very rich company and i do not think that they will be needing cryptocurrency for their business to improve even more, but i think that apple will also use cryptocurrency in the future if the price will continue to grow in the market that will attract the investors.

I don't think this moment will happen. Bitcoin and Apple have a different uniques style.
Bitcoin has no rules, Apple rules everything that they got, including its patents etc.

Hope so,apple don't accept bitcoin.Real question is "Will ever Apple accept bitcoins or will rather create their own cryptocurrency?"apple could do this,they could make themselves a cryptocurrency for itself.If they ever think they should enter the virtual world then they can make cryptocurrency for themselves.

I do not think apple needed using blockchain technology. Because apple is a huge corporation. If we compare apple with Bitcoin then I think Apple is more famous and popular than Bitcoin

Ya right apple is more famous and popular than bitcoin because apple did came out first just before bitcoin existed in 2009

however if bitcoin will be given an adequate time i think bitcoin can also become famous as what apple have right now.

But in terms of net worth i think bitcoin can totally compete with apple.

Sooner or later the value of bitcoin and its market cap can still grow more and it can probabaly surpass the earnings of apple company.

There are investors who are much more risky than those we have seen before in the stock markets. But that exactly what opens better opportuniies for those people.

The real question is "Will ever Apple accept bitcoins or will rather create their own cryptocurrency?". They already have the whole ecosystem thanks to Apple Pay. Next step is not that difficult..

Tough to tell exactly, but Apple already has a list of coins/tokens that are verified.

But for apple, which virtual currency is worthy of support and a bit murky, it also seems to have something to do with the flow and popularity of virtual currencies.

It depends on their well. Many big companies like amazon, eBay, Bedford have started accepting bitcoin. Hope that Apple will also start accepting bitcoin soon in the near future, because they know that people are turning towards cryptocurrency and the future is that of crypto. Therefore it is necessary to provide customers a platform for easy payments.

I do not know about it, I have a question. Are other products similar to apple receiving bitcoin? why do you just mention apple?
No big corporation can accept bitcoin as a means of payment, so far we know a lot of big companies that do not allow or accept bitcoin.

I think there must be some issues that Apple still do not accept bitcoin although big companies already accepting bitcoin. I t is right that when they realize that now they should start accepting bitcoin, they will not wait for a single day. May be some security issues because it is a matter of money and everyone needs security for his payments and receipts.

I do not think a company will use a system if they have a system if their own. Practically speaking, even us in our daily life, we will not use the things of other people if we can have our own.

I do not think that Apple needs this at the moment, surely they are following the world of crypto currency and are waiting for the right time to say their word.

apple does not have to accept bitcoin or cryptocurrency. because they are not a market like amazon or ebay who should think about bitcoin or cryptocurrency.

To me my personal view is that very soon they are going accept bitcoin, as bitcoin is still the top crypto currency and most of the people know about bitcoin, and if i think that all the big companies are going to accept crytpo currency in their company, then they also have to start accepting bitcoin and facilitate people to use bitcoin for purchasing their products.

Well like amazon there will be too complex for them to accept bitcoin. Apple has too many sales and if those sales are converted into bitcoin transaction then I think that there will be a mess in the blockchain.
Because there will be lots of transaction, then the transaction fees will not be very stable and many transaction can get rejected by the network which users will be very disappointed.

I think that Apple is a very innovative company, which means that there are high chances that they will start accepting bitcoins in the future. But when nobody can say for sure. I wouldn't mind this because I like Apple products

Well, I thought they have accept bitcoin already, so my opinion was wrong but anyway I don't really care if Apple will accepting bitcoin or no, because for me the important thing was when my country will accepting bitcoin as a valid currency?

with apple's self pride on our way, adapting bitcoin technology or blockchain technology is far more impossible, the company is truly an introvert as one commented, for sure they are now developing their own crypto and blockchain tech, or should i say, already in the market now, with apple's innovative tech and huge assets, they can easily join the bandwagon on blockchain.
