New Apple iOS 10 To Enable Circle Payments App. What About Bitcoin?

 Apple announced the update for its iOS 10 mobile operating  system and iMessages that will include the Circle payments app, this may  also mean a potential integration of Bitcoin payments along with fiat  via the Circle pay app system. 

The premiere of a whole new iOS 10 operating system is scheduled today for users in the US.

 
According to a report by South China Morning Post,  Jeremy Allaire, CEO and founder of Circle, says adding payments to  iMessages would make it more convenient for users. He stated:  

“There’s a hurdle to have to install a smartphone app so that I can  pay my buddy and all the inputting and set up. To do it all within the  iMessages app is a lot easier.”  

Adding the Circle payments app means that users will be able to send  both fiat – USD, GBP and EUR – and cryptocurrency like Bitcoin to  another phone or service. Circle is one of the leading Bitcoin and p2p payment companies.   

However, there are no official statement or details on Bitcoin  payments in iMessage, but adding the payment app from a Bitcoin payment  solution provider without them would be a strange decision. More updates  are coming soon.
