The conceptual Apple Money device and cryptocurrency has been designed by Antonio De Rosa as a rendering of what we could see if the tech giant got into the market with its own digital coin. The Apple Money gadget itself would function as a device for mining coin and would be powered by the Apple Security Chip S2 that would allow for the managing of 27 assets and ERC20 tokens. The money would also be available on the Apple Card+, which is imagined as an enhanced version of the namesake original.
The conceptual Apple Money device is imagined as a sleek device that would fit in well with an existing user's everyday tech carry and could be accented with a stylish case.
