So can we finally take iPhones of the Banned List

Regardless of the exact number of applications that it has, I'd think twice before using any of them, that device and that OS. However, I'm more curious on the following:

What is this list and where can I find it?

If you are a Xapo wallet user, you can have a look at the bottom of my list. There are six different instantly paying xapo faucet apps. I have been using them for some time now and they are all safe and nice apps.

It was just a General knowledge list someone may have

made a thread on it,

IPhone was one of the major offenders

Most of the companies on the list renedged on their position

and went pro Bitcoin, including Banks EBay and Paypal

Some countries are Still Anti Bitcoin including Singapore

u can't really trust the wiki list of countries

Australia is most definately safe for Bitcoin  :)

No. I'm a full client user. However, I know some people who are using Xapo.

Why would I want to waste my time on pennies?

Well, it requires constant editing as these positions tend to shift.

No it says legal for Singapore but the economy and size of

Singapore is pathetically small letting anyone know u have Bitcoin their

if ur a foreigner is just far to dangerous not to mention suicidal.

May i know the detail of the apps you are talking about? Is is game based faucet apps or wallet apps or bitcoin news apps??
As i can see there are some addition of apps now in apps store, but for bitcoin game is still so little

As far as I know most of them are news and price apps, something you look at every now and then to see what's up. It's still a long way for Apple to allow a 'competitor' for Apple money.

Wait what...I would like to know where you get your information from, I had no idea Singapore is anti bitcoin.. Although I have to agree that the various regulations that Singapore Gov has made to regulate virtual currencies like bitcoin are pretty vague. To be honest, the regulations pretty much only applies to companies that have businesses in or registered in singapore, and than again they arent usually enforced too. I do know a bunch of people here, its alright to let people know you dabble with bitcoin. Like less than 0.5% of the population even knows whats bitcoin actually.

What kind of Bitcoin apps are avalaible there ? Wallets ? I wouldn't trust it. News, nice. Faucets games, nice but not that important.

*Satoshis. Big difference  ;). A penny might take you a few hours to earn.

I definitely don't trust an IPhone with any decent amount of bitcoins. They have terrible security. Just Google 'hacked iphone' and look at the billions of results. That's not where my money's going! So the number of apps means nothing. Mos bitcoin apps are terrible faucets or stock tickers I find anyways.

When  u make a shill post u need to know who ur talking to

Bitcoin is know about by all Singaporeans they r so money centric it's not funny

to make some ridiculous claim that the island state of drugs prostitution

and money laundering knows nothing about Bitcoin hahahaha

Still remember in early 2014 when Apple took all bitcoin related Apps off their Apple Store? A guy literally destroy his iPhone with a gun!

Not sure how he feels now when Bitcoin apps is now springing up like mushrooms after rain!

Wat a crazy way to publicly expose ur company as a Fiat shill

bow down Apple to the 13th century Roman Empire technology

hahaha a Mechanical Printing Press u idiots

So Apple noticed bitcoin potential and now see it as good enough to let bitcoin related apps be in their store?
Too bad, it is too late now. I am not Apple user but if I were I would never install anything bitcoin related on Apple devices.
You shouldn't too.

They got rid of Steve Jobs real quick when Bitcoin appeared on the Horizon

Commended for your grasp of written english. "Bitcoin is know about by all Singaporeans?", wanna do a real life survey in CBD and discuss about it with a real life open forum and we see how many attend out of knowledge and not curiosity? Walk along any street and ask anyone walking pass, you probably get 2 who actually knows bitcoin out of 10 pedestrians. Money may be laundered simply using fiat. Its funny that you mention me making a shill post. You forgot to mention Singaporeans cane people who eat chewing gum too  ::) ::) ::). You think too highly of most Singaporeans.  ::)

I can't be bothered, u made a fake survey

and admitting u know about Bitcoin could get u robbed or

sodomized in Singapore so sure they will say no!

the real answer is 0/10 will say they know ;)

I suddenly remembered this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1220697.0. My bad. You are right. I made a fake survey, actually -10/10 will say they know  ::) Oh you forgot sodomizing is illegal in Singapore too  ::) ::) Still wondering how knowing about bitcoin will get you robbed, not like i carry my paper wallets around  :o

Singapore Airport is a vast honey pot crawling with detectives

they are all drug addicted drug fks and the Malaysian gangsters

that operate the immigration lines stick out like dogs balls

can u not sound so ghey when u talk dude

AFK

hahahahaha

Wow! It seems like the discussion is now off-topic.

Talking about Singapore, I guess it is one of the Asia countries that is very open and neutral to bitcoin. Some even suspect its government is investing in the technology or the bitcoin itself. A news article in 2014: http://www.todayonline.com/singapore/temasek-launches-office-new-york-city (http://www.todayonline.com/singapore/temasek-launches-office-new-york-city)

"Temasek invests for the long-term but also has its eye on the opportunities of tomorrow’s digital world, said Mr Lim. Just last month, it conducted a company-wide Bitcoin experiment with everyone, from driver to board member, learning how to donate to chosen charities from his Bitcoin wallet."

My guess is that, just like any other first world countries, Singapore should have a significant number of bitcoiners. However, most likely it is just like what Quartx mentioned, 1 in 5 know about it- which is already quite a high percentage!

On a separate note, Singapore is one of the safest country in the world. See http://www.businessinsider.sg/the-20-safest-cities-in-the-world-2015-1/#.V0r29VR94dU (http://www.businessinsider.sg/the-20-safest-cities-in-the-world-2015-1/#.V0r29VR94dU). I really do not agree with Bitcoinpro- it seems like you are not a great fan of Singapore...

Their is no freedom of speech in Singapore

criticizing the Prime Minister is the Death Penalty

just keep urself and ur Bitcoins away from there :)

I dont really see lots of Apps for bitcoins in Apple Store. I wonder if you could name a few apps your are referring too. The Best app in Iphone for bitcoin is the Bread Wallet. Its the most easy and secure wallet that can be used without any fear as it combines the security of Iphone itself which is Uncompromised.

yeah sounds about right ,  I saw things like coinbase n blockchain

Death penalty.... yea right... that is a bit extreme? Do you have any proof of this or are you just blowing off some steam..? I have visited Singapore before and I know they have some strict rules, but I

doubt that the death penalty would be given, for people who speak shit about the Prime Minister? If that happened to citizens in my country.... most of us would have been dead and buried already. I

think most people from democratic countries would find it hard to believe this. Wow..  ::)

I see you have lack of interest in continuing the topic so maybe make a new thread about bitcoins and Singapore ? Because its getting really Off-Topic,calling people "ghey" and shit [though that makes sense].

Iphones were ever in the banned list ? I have no idea about that.Could you be precise ,are those paid apps ?If yes,then it would be stupid to pay for a free opensource technology.I'm wondering what possibly the apps can do apart from being standalone wallets.You can't really use them to check the blocks or networks.Recharge app is again an exception but that's not really a bitcoin app.

Not much of a surprise here. They probably saw that bitcoins ARE indeed profitable on their side because it's kinda like a public material for bitcoin users to be 'encouraged' to use Apple products. Good effect on bitcoin as well because publicity. I'm just afraid that some stoneheads can ruin the btc community.

Sounds useless, seeing as you can get that info from Apple's native iOS Stocks app.

There are several bitcoin apps on android play store also.Frankly I dont get the point of this thread.Op doesn't include any list or link to it that it refers to

holy crap! I thought I saw an episode of international house hunters
where they were buying in singapore.... I hope the real estate guy filled
them in lol

Bitcoin apps never got banned on apple store. The problem was with games that used bitcoin as a reward on to buy in-games. And now there are few app games gives bitcoins.

For now i don't see bitcoin earning apps on iphone, They don't permit it to post on appstore or no developer is interested to create apps via ios they think that it will now beneficial to do so because almost of the iphone users are on the middle class category which is don't need to do faucet thing or maybe the can create app or i think there is but just only for bitcoin wallets.   

You can find some mobile apps on: http://www.bitcoinaliens.com/faucet/  go to mobile apps, and you will see the direct link to download from apple store.

do you mean wallet apps or something else?

why iphone in the ban list?
