HTML5 = cross-platform. That has value.

This is true.
The effort wouldn't be all in vain, it's just that the main motivation in making the app was to provide an option for Apple users. If they have the choice of an in-browser HTML5 app and a native app from the store, the native app will probably win Wink

No, because being able to log onto my wallet without having to use my iPhone is primordial.

This is also true. The wallet will be accessible from any device, which is a bonus. And some other features people will like.
It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Yeah, I totally get where you are coming from. And, not to tell you how to feel or anything, but we should all be ecstatic about this news. It's huge.

As someone finishing development of an HTML5 wallet targeted at Apple users...
Fuck.

Believe it when you see it. Until then your work is not in vein...come to think of it...it's not in vein if apple does allow bitcoin apps. more choices, more freedoms.
Yeah?

The blockchain app still isn't on the app store. What gives? When will it be available?

Only blockchain can give you a definite answer.

The comments say the app developer is a scammer and it's not safe to use the application.

I think it is okay.  It uses a Coinbase API and Coinbase looked over the code and said it was fine.  Still.... the dev could push an update at anytime and who knows then what happens.  If I was using it I would use it with a secondary account with small amounts of bitcoin until something "official" comes along.

Was just talking about something similar in another thread.
Think back to a year and what was happening then. Essentially speculation.
Now look at "us". Where will we be in another year? Scary to suppose...

Its about sharing

Until the word "Bitcoin" appears on their list of approved currencies, this is not something to be excited about

If the Apps that were once banned are now allowed and if the US Government is behind Bitcoin, what exactly do you want?
Do they even have a list or is it implied via actions (such as above)?

Eventually though, I think we get that list. The space is still a youngin though.

Im a current iPhone user and having wallet on iPhone would be great. As some others have said, now you don't have to have 2 phones.
It would awesome if I could buy an iPhone with bitcoin.

After owning every iphone since the beginning, I switched to android last year. I am very happy running a mobile version of electrum on my big screen Note 3 and it will take more then approving wallets to get me to go back. I need to see apple step up and really wow me with the next device for me to switch back. As much as I would love that to happen mainly because I own hundreds of $$ in apps in the app store, I don't think it will happen.
