Apple welcomes back Blockchain's wallet app to its App Store, while Coinapult takes aim at bitcoin's volatility. <\/p>\n

A brief period of stability has settled over bitcoin after a few bad days of tumbling prices, marked by two separate and sudden drops. <\/p>\n

Both litecoin and peercoin also enjoyed a moment of calm, each shifting in value by less than 1% since yesterday. <\/p>\n

The biggest mover across all markets was rainbowcoin, which jumped by more than 850% over the last 24 hours. Despite the massive leap, the cryptocurrency geared towards the LGBT community still only has a relatively modest market capitalisation of around $50,000 (30,000). <\/p>\n

Bitcoin and Apple make peace <\/p>\n

Blockchain has returned to iOS after Apple reinstated its bitcoin wallet app to the App Store yesterday. <\/p>\n

The move comes more than five months after Blockchain and other bitcoin-related apps were banned by Apple. <\/p>\n

\"We're very excited to continue investing in iOS again and working with Apple to reimagine how the world transacts,\" said Nicolas Cary, CEO of Blockchain. <\/p>\n

Following the February ban, Cary labelled Apple \"anticompetitive\" and \"capricious\" and warned that its treatment of bitcoin was a strategic mistake that would result in Android taking the early lead in fintech and bitcoin software. <\/p>\n

Coinapult takes aim at bitcoin volatility <\/p>\n
