Honestly, for now I don’t see a reason for Apple to accept bitcoin. If it will become as commonly uses, as paper money, than there will be a possibility that apple will accept it. For now we kinda need to be satisfied with apple pay.

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.
I do not have any idea that Apple will accept Bitcoin or Altcoin as a form of payment. Bitcoin price is too volatile if it accepts that Apple's annual income will fluctuate. Particularly many countries do not accept Bitcoin, which affects Apple's decision.

I think apple will not accept bitcoin as a method of payment but there's a possibility that in the near future that apple would create their own crypto currency and I'm sure it will support by many people.

Apple is a great innovator in our times although they sure are pricey and almost cater to the upper class. That said, they don't easily give in to trends and mostly try to be a trailblazer than a bandwagon. If they do give in, they might create their own coin rather than go with bitcoin.

This is an easy question and the answer about it is. Apple is not influenced with bitcoin or any cryptocurrency.

Yes for me, It is possible that the apple accept the bitcoin, but It seems like apple is not interested to Bitcoin, because apple is a big company so maybe Apple can provide soon a coin and a Blockchain technology. But It's my own opinion only..

I guess most modern brand will accept cryptocurrency sometime soon as more and more are starting to integrate cryptocurrency in their business cycle. Once this happens, cryptocurrency will play a great role in companies' business model and will boost the demand of cryptocurrency market.

not anytime soon. most of the business moves being enacted by the institution are meant to make it bigger. most are of corporate success and not social success.

And how if Apple make their own ICO? I think there is always a possibility for them to take advantages in this business too.

I dont think that apple still need's cryptocurrency in their business because they are popular enough and they also have good marketing in order for their products to be sold in many people.

I don't have any idea about it. Maybe when apple will feel they need to accept crypto as payment. Still their business is good without accepting crypto. When a lot of people will be attached to crypto then maybe it can be possible.

I agree and also with the high volatility of the currency, It really makes it hard for Apple and other retailers to start accepting Bitcoins as a method of payment on their websites. Once we deal with the high volatilty i believe more retailers will start accepting the crypto.

Faster Apple will create his own digital currency than accept bitcoin You can see that kind of plots like it was in a case of Amazon but bitcoin is causing merchants to much problem Can you imagine to pay for one song or game few dollars and pay all that btc transaction fee

Apple is their own world. And cryptocurrency still needs to develop for real world use. I see it possible in the future.

As much as this question comes up for apple the same solution will be replicated by it and Amazon which is they will create their own blockchain network and a cryptocurrency which like ripple will be in content with all the cryptocurrency laws in the country

i dont think they will accept bitcoin ever. they will issue their own utility token based on another blockchain. maybe waves maybe neo or ethereum. who knows. but i am sure they will start using cryptocurrencies in the near future.

I think that it will happen but not sure that this year, i think that time is needed and maybe this will happen in the nearest period of time. I think that btc has great chances to become the first one in all spheres

This may well happen when bitcoin becomes a new world currency. When the whole society will switch to digital money. Then the apple will use bitcoin as calculations. It's only in time, when it comes and what will be the trigger.
