apple pay is the worst news for bitcoin in months. you people are delusional.
Apple Pay isn't a competitor to Bitcoin any more than Paypal is. Just another USD payment provider.
This. They'll hardly even cover USA alone, which is what, 4% world population? Minus people who do not have iphone, we're at 1% at best, and that's their maximum theoretically possible market now.
Besides, the first hack of the encrypted card data allowing iphone virus to conveniently pay with "one touch" and the whole idea is compromised.
