This is really good news. The more companies and stores are beginning to accept the crypto currencies, the better it will be for the market. Let this thing go on.  Grin

That's good news,,, crypto is starting to be used in the real world, hopefully soon crypto can actually be used for shopping real goods. When apple successfully use crypto as money to redeem the product,,, it will be crypto will penetrate into various real products,,, hopefully soon realized.

As the idea is so promising but it is still under developement for Apple stores when Microsoft already accepts bitcoin payements. Early or late for apple to get involved in crypto environment but i found it a biggest step for apple to continue growth and maintain the developement in technology.

quote from the article:

In case you were wondering, Apple doesn’t take Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency for now. So, if you’re looking to spend your coins (stable or otherwise) on the App Store, you’re still ahead of your time.

in other words don't get excited this is not anything new.
from day one that bitcoin was created you could buy literary anything with literary any cryptocurrency but as long as you were going through a third party! LOL

in other words it is like this: i pay for some object with fiat, you pay me with crypto and i give you that object! what happens is that you trust me (a third party) and you are not buying that object from the real shop but from someone else who may scam you  and run away.

this case is mostly an advertisement of this new altcoin called Havven.
I agree with you. Was surprised by reading the title honestly, but understood the true meaning after going through the article itself. Why in the world would Apple even embrace cryptocurrencies all of a sudden when they have already made it very clear that they do not support cryptocurrencies in general? I doubt that they will change their stance anytime soon just like majority of the big companies like Facebook, Twitter etc. I feel that they would truly embrace crypto once the volatility decreases to a much more stable level which would serve as an alternate payment solution to FIAT.

I think that this is a profitable business. Now began to appear more and more shops, where it is possible to pay cryptocurrency, mainly Ethereum and Bitcoin.

That is a good gesture but article does say that only 8% of American population has invested into the crypto currencies which means that there is too short window for the buyers to come by. I mean America is country where apple is mostly sold and thus unfortunately it will receive less number of buyers. But if those alternative crypto currency methods are international one then there could be serious change in the whole thing and it will be helpful to every person out there.

Then we can say that crypto currencies are asking over in proper way. Off course if Apple enable this by themselves then there could be perfect branding of the crypto currency itself. That would be just perfect.

Saw this article on The Merkle: https://themerkle.com/now-you-have-another-way-to-pay-for-apple-products/

Guys it's happening. With all of the recent news, it looks like everyone is starting to embrace crypto. I think doing this through stablecoins is the way. What do you guys think?

it's starting, but we're not there quite yet. All of us need to also be willing to spend bitcoins instead of hoarding it, so let's come together and get it done. I'm trying to spend crypto everywhere possible.

It is interesting to know that the cryptocurrency is accepted in many more transaction and payment method. It is very good news. Hopefully, there are many more companies that can work and accept the cryptocurrency.

Glad to here. I am not a fan of apple products, but still it's huge step! I hope more and more companies and countries will accept bitcoin and all cryptocurrency.

This should be a third-party service, I do not know Apple support, if Apple's official support, it is definitely a major advantage, but this channel is also a good idea, I believe there will be more and more support.

How I wish this is coming directly from Apple,  it would have been a great plus for cryptocurrency,  nevertheless it's still a great information because I've never come across this news before its still a form of motivation towards general acceptability of crypto.. Looking forward to a time Apple will officially be accepting crypto for their products

This is great news for the whole crypto world! Finally, this began to happen and the world of cryptocurrencies increasingly interacts with the traditional world. I hope with each new day of such news there will be more and more companies in the world will be involved in new technologies.

You can pay with alt coin to buy apple products but this is not directly from apple.

But, Microsoft accepts btc as direct payments. You can officially add money to your Microsoft account using BTC. See below link

This is cool enough and great information though it’s not officially from Apple 🍏 Store, it’s still a great idea for accepting a stable coin to purchase but I must confess, it would be of a great one if the Apple 🍏 company would really accept crypto officially .

Even more good news, something like this can actually be what finally convinces me to start using an iphone because if I can buy it using cryptos then I would and would start using their products more often. Although I am not sure how authentic this news is because if a tech giant like apple started accepting cryptos then the news would be everywhere so I would have to wait and see

I'm just excited for the implications. Implementing a stablecoin like havven will make it easy for companies to adopt crypto because they reduce the risk of price volatility. Great project  Grin

If this gets implemented it could have a big impact on the entire industry. If Apple goes ahead with this then we should see many other companies follow, especially Apple competitors
