I don't think Apple will be accepting Bitcoin, if it happens I think not in the soonest possible time. Personally, I have always observed that Apple is a company that has a strong core and belief in their own people, more often than not, they would just creat something on their own rather than be open in collaboration with others. I think if ever they will join the crypto currency industry, that is because they have create their own coins rather than be open and welcoming to Bitcoin or any other else. But hey anything is possible, I guess we will all just see it when it happens.

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

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 think that Apple is not having a need to accept Bitcoin for now... it is useless for them, scince they are already having their insanely big profits from Iproducts. |

It is never going to happen if that is what you are wondering. It is like expecting to see banks accepting bitcoin, it is exactly the same only that you are talking about one of the most massive brands of the entire world, do you get the point of that?

I think it will take a long time for Apple to accept bitcoin, you can see that there are very few countries in the world today that recognize and recognize bitcoins, so bitcoin prices are not government The countries are under control and are dominated by a lot of black people such as whales, sharks, trading floors .... The market is still bearish in the long term so you should be very careful. |

Apple is big company and I think they know how bitcoin risky is and I think they don't need bitcoin to their company unless they change their mind to adopt bitcoin their company. But Apple is big company that don't need to rely in bitcoin.

Even if Aplle is going to use crypto system, I think the company will create its own blockhain system without having to use another bitcoin or altcoin.

Apple will accept Bitcoin only when it might potentially suit them, but rather than that, they would probably make a blockchain and coin for them only first. It's a very territorial, closed company.
They will accept it, Lets in few month or few years when bitcoins become a legal currency or at least a legal asset. I believe in august there will be ETF of bitcoin and it will boost bitcoin really good. I think what apple doing is cause they are afraid that crypto is a bubble that would burst, but crypto is a future which cant be avoid forever and they will accept it soon or later. |

As we all know that there are many controversy going on regarding the bitcoin and due to its volatile nature, it has always been in conversation with millions of people who are investing into bitcoin or are interested into bitcoin and there are even positive news also that few countries has legalised bitcoin transactions in their nation and few luxury car companies are also accepting bitcoin so the positive effect of bitcoin is going on and I am sure that apple will also understand the potential and then will legalise it and starts accepting it. |

I think there are too many reasons for Apple not to accept Bitcoin as a form of payment in their ecosystem. They are so well known for their quality and prestige products, so they hate bad language, they hate hackers, they do not want to fight the government. Also, because Bitcoin deals seem to be anonymous, they can not control it. Therefore, they do not accept Bitcoin in the near future

I don't think that corporation that big as apple as will be in first line of embracing bitcoin technologies because it is just not needed for that there are having enough orders even without Bitcoin.

A great reason to stay away from Apple products, it basically is the antithesis of Bitcoin. I can never imagine Apple doing anything with crypto. |

there are excessively numerous explanations behind Apple not to acknowledge Bitcoin as a type of installment in their biological community. They are so outstanding for their quality and distinction items, so they despise awful dialect, they loathe programmers, they would prefer not to battle the administration. Additionally, in light of the fact that Bitcoin bargains appear to be unknown, they can not control it. In this way, they don't acknowledge Bitcoin sooner rather than later |

Apple crypto tokens are now completely unnecessary. However, they can use blockchain technology in their business and it is more likely than creating their tokens. I do not think Apple is interested in having own coins. |

Apple is a huge firm and many huge firms want to work with or invest in the best technology that would aid their business dealings and as such Bitcoin is a perfect fit for this kind of description. Amazon have started accepting BTC as a medium of payment on their website and this goes to show the importance of BTc, as the popularity increases many large firms would adopt BTc as a medium of payment and eventually Apple will.
