...wow? Yes, really. After just recently removing Blockchain from the App Store, Apple has approved the first Dogecoin wallet app for the App Store.

Jaxx is considering a resubmission of an improved version of its wallet to iOS App Store despite the recent decision of Apple not to support either Ethereum Classic or Dash. Anthony Di Iorio explains to CoinTelegraph that after Apple rejected Jaxx’s application to integrate ETC into its wallet on the iOS App Store without a given reason, it approved Lisk, Digicash and Steemit on its platform.
