Apple has dealt a blow for Dash users looking to use the cryptocurrency on the iOS platform after telling multi-platform cryptocurrency wallet Jaxx to remove Dash from its iOS app.

Apple is unwilling to let Dash – the eight largest cryptocurrency in the world by market cap – onto its App Store, according to revelations by crypto-wallet Jaxx founder Anthony Di Iorio.

Cryptocurrency enthusiasts will remember Apple’s strict moderating policies when it removed Blockchain’s bitcoin wallet iOS app back in 2014. At the time, the application was the last wallet app on the App Store and the move sparked backlash from the cryptocurrency community.

It wasn’t long before Apple reversed its anti-bitcoin stance, allowing mobile wallets to regain a presence in the App Store. Blockchain was the first bitcoin wallet to be reinstated to the App Store in late July 2014. However, Apple’s goodwill toward cryptocurrencies, as it turns out, does not extend to Dash. Anthony Di Iorio, founder of cryptocurrency wallet Jaxx revealed that Apple wasn’t happy about its integration of the cryptocurrency.
