The stablecoin issuer said Apple Pay support allows traditional businesses to experience the benefits of crypto settlement while allowing crypto businesses to engage with non-crypto-using customers.

Circle, the issuer of the United States dollar-pegged stablecoin USD Coin (USDC) has added support for Apple Pay — with the intention of bringing the crypto and traditional payment systems closer together.

Circle made the announcement in a Nov. 15 blog post, suggesting it may boost sales for crypto-native businesses as they can facilitate traditional payments from non-crypto-using customers while enabling customers to “buy crypto with Apple Pay on their preferred exchange.”

According to Circle, the addition of Apple Pay support will benefit traditional businesses by allowing them “to shift more retail payments to digital currency.”

Apple Pay is available to “eligible businesses” and claims to enable it is “a simple process.” Meanwhile, customers who checkout with Apple Pay at participating firms will finalize the transaction, as usual, using Apple’s Face ID or Touch ID.

Animoca Brands Corporation Ltd. and Arevo Inc., a 3D-printing startup, have collaborated to manufacture a range of personalized carbon fiber bicycles motivated by and adorned with privately held NFT artworks. The alliance between Animoca and Arevo marks a major milestone in integrating the ‘matterverse’ to the ‘metaverse’ by combining distinct digital commodities with unique physical things.

Future product launches will combine Arevo’s capacity for mass customization of top-end carbon fibre goods with NFT-validated artworks from a variety of artist and owner groups.
Yat Siu, co-founder and executive chairman of Animoca Brands, stated, “Arevo’s state-of-the-art carbon fibre 3D printing technique is a glimpse into the framework of the fully accessible metaverse that Animoca Brands is promoting – a Web3 vision in which customisation is common, digital possession is pervasive, and the ceiling between physical and digital goods falls.”

Worksphere, the Seattle-based startup building a platform to manage hybrid workplace experiences, has been acquired by San Francisco-based competitor Envoy.

Both companies sell software that helps employers manage how workers book desks and use physical office space.

Envoy launched in 2013 and raised $111 million in January. It also acquired desk reservation and scheduling startup OfficeTogether in August.

Envoy has grown alongside the pandemic-fueled adoption of hybrid work, and its customers include large enterprise customers such as Slack, Pinterest, Hulu, Stripe and Mazda, among others.

Worksphere was co-founded in September 2020 by CEO Aakhil Fardeen, CTO Mark Piper and Head of Growth Theresa Klaassen. They previously worked at Lish, a corporate catering startup that Fardeen started. With workers going remote when the pandemic hit, Lish’s business slowed — and that led to the creation of Worksphere.
