Apple vs Crypto

The past few years showed that the giant luxurious mobile manufacturer Apple never kept its ecosystem friendly to this innovative sector.

In mid of last year, Apple’s app store brought a new policy against all the Crypto NFTs applications, to force all the NFTs to trade via Apple’s inbuilt purchase system.

Through the new rules, Apple ordered that all the NFTs app services to pay a 30% trade fee to Apple otherwise it will ban all such NFTs applicant applications ecosystem.

Apple blocked Coinbase Wallet last app release until they disabled the feature of sending NFTs. Coinbase Wallet said that Apple’s claim is that the gas fees required to send NFTs need to be paid through their In-App Purchase system, so that they can collect 30% of the gas fee.

The Coinbase team openly invited Apple to talk on this matter and bring a favourable situation for the crypto & Apple’s ecosystem.

We hope this is an oversight on Apple’s behalf and an inflection point for further conversations with the ecosystem. @apple – we’re here and want to help
