Apple finally officially outlawed the activities of cryptocurrency mining on its devices, which they include in the Review Guidelines on the App Store, which extend to all Apple platforms.

In March, Apple removed the Calendar 2 app from the Mac App Store after it was caught cryptocurrency as a 'payment' for its premium features. This is Apple's decisive step towards applications that perform cryptomining activities.

Developer Calendar 2 claims Apple is removing their application for violating application procedures in the App Store, ie the application should not suck the battery quickly, generate excessive heat, or take unnecessary device resources

Apple now has a new section specifically about cryptocurrency in its application procedure, which applies to iOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS apps. There are five main rules in the ordinance. That is:

1.Apple allows the application of virtual currency wallets as long as they are made by the official developers of the organization.

2.Applications can help users to make payments, exchange or receive cryptocurrency in an approved exchange, but the application must also come from the exchange.

3.Applications involved in initial coin offerings, bitcoin trade, or other cryptocurrency trades shall originate from banks, companies or other licensed financial institutions. And they must also be legal entities.

4.Cryptocurrency applications may not provide virtual coin prizes under the pretext of doing a task such as downloading other apps, inviting other users to download the app, or engaging in social media activities.
