Apple has approved the first iOS game, SaruTobi, to feature native Bitcoin microtransactions using ZBD's Lightning technology.
Regulatory pressures like the EU’s Digital Markets Act and legal rulings such as Epic v. Apple have compelled tech giants to adopt more developer-friendly payment systems.
SaruTobi, originally launched in 2013 with Bitcoin integration, now returns to iOS with ZBD's Lightning infrastructure for seamless payments.
The approval marks a historic shift, enabling players to engage in flexible, rewarded gameplay through Bitcoin microtransactions, potentially paving the way for more Bitcoin-native experiences on the App Store.
