Bitcoin & Apple Pay

[Synchronice]

I don't know if others platform like Coinbase Card or Crypto.com are supported.

Including the crypto.com visa card, I think all DC/CC/VC products that collaborate with Visa will automatically be used on Apple Pay based on several searches for payment card products that I found.

Binance card https://watcher.guru/news/how-to-add-binance-card-to-apple-pay

There is nothing written about how to add Binance card to Apple Pay in that article. Actually, Binance card only supports Google Pay and Samsung Pay. Just turn on NFC, use Google Pay on iPhone and pay via Binance Card, problem solved.
Let's be frank, what's the point of using Apple Pay with Bitcoins? You use bitcoins to protect your privacy and not make it clear & public for companies like Apple that collects information about our financial activities and process this data to further improve their sales and marketing.

To pay with bitcoin was always my favorite use of bitcoin. Since it should be easy and fast the best Solution would be an implementation in Apple Pay. Is there a way to do that or could it be done in the more open Android Pay envoirment? I heard that apple will open nfc to 3rd party applications soon.

Edit: What I propose is not to put bitcoin on a MasterCard or something. I want to create a shortcut to blue wallet so that you can spend bitcoins that are stored locally on your phone directly and easily with "Apple Pay" in the sense that you just need to "tap and go". No need to unlock your phone, no need to open the app, no need to insert bitcoin address. Just simple tap and payment is done.

It looks cool to use, but as a bitcoin holder at this moment, I regret using my bitcoin as a payment to a merchant that accepts
online payment in bitcoin.

         You know bitcoin halving is coming soon, so at this point of time I'm really saving up, but it's nice to use and seems to be
fast compared to others though.

It’s true that it is easy to regret to spend bitcoins if the price rises after that. However you can never benefit from your bitcoins if you never sell them. I would just not sell a large portion.
What is the benefit of a card like this is, that you can hold your savings in Bitcoin also and not hold them in cash. This way you can easily spend your savings and also benefit from rising prices.

As long as Apple does not take it seriously there seems little to no chance of this happening. Apple Pay currently use standard payment processors and integration just like what you would see with Google play, Casino sites or may be a saloon with point of sale machine.

If there would have been some sort of Transaction API then we would have already implemented bitcoin in no time. World already wants such payment linking but it is something that can be achieved only with proper infra around the globe.
