👨💻 PayPal Joins The Metaverse
PayPal has hinted at continued investment in the Metaverse. José Fernandez da Ponte, blockchain manager at PayPal, said he has high hopes for blockchain technology. He said: “We will build a bridge between the fiat universe and the crypto universe. Consumers will have access to the wider Web3 network through their PayPal wallets.”
PayPal plans to develop downloadable software for trading and storing digital assets. In addition, PayPal will develop digital asset management and verification software and downloadable software as a digital asset.
In addition, on October 18, PayPal filed a trademark application related to cryptocurrencies and blockchain. The new trademark may be related to the NFT market, but some speculate that it will most likely be related to Web3 and the metaverse.
This year, PayPal introduced a new “Checkout with Cryptocurrency” feature, which allows you to pay for online purchases with cryptocurrencies.

❌ Apple updates rules for cryptocurrencies and NFTs in its App Store
Yesterday, the Californian company published a new set of rules for regulating applications in the App Store. Among other things, two particularly important sections (3.1.1) and 3.1.3(g) have appeared.
The first one says that now applications are allowed to trade non-fungible tokens (NFTs), however, their purchase must necessarily occur only through the internal Apple payment system, that is, with a commission of 30%. At the same time, Apple is ready to cooperate with licensed exchanges.
The second says that now Digital purchases must also be made through the Apple payment system with a commission of 30%. Apple specifically noted that this concerns the promotion of posts on social networks (Twitter, VK, etc.), that is, simple advertising.
