Bity and Cycle of Goodness both launched wallets in the wake of Apple’s Blockchain ban to wide enthusiasm in the community, while browser-based alternatives have provided alternative relief.

I read about it already few articles and I think this is great news for bitcoiners.
And Apple will gain more from joining then from fighting with it.

Their decision to ban bitcoin apps was stupid from the day one.

Apple has yet to publish a list of which virtual currencies it considers to be "approved".

Well :) What do you think??  Which one they will allow? :)
Bitcoin for sure. Litecoin perhaps.  Dogecoin? :)

How far will Apple go? :)

About time. What were they waiting for? Why did they remove it in the first place?

I thought that their virtual currency  was told to be called iMoney?

But yes well.  Perhaps you are right but I would say Litecoin will join them very soon if not in a same time.

Anyway.  We will see very soon :-)

They should never have removed it in the first place.

I'm not sure if it was true that they were going to have their own currency.

I agree that they shouldn't ever done that - remove bitcoin apps from their store, but I am sure they did felt that on their skin. :)

I'll believe it when I see it regarding their own money. I'm sure they file patents for stuff all the time.

Well I wish they will never do any coin :)
It would be much better if they will just allow Bitcoin users to use Bitcoin and that's it ;)

Time will show.

Cheers.

Alt coins drive innovation. They are a great way to experiment with things without messing with the bit coin protocol.
