Switch to Android. It will make a dent.

Bitcoin people are not a random demographic, they are early adopters, many are entrepreneurs, most are young.

I don't think Apple cares all that much about losing early adopters at this stage, and the number of folks willing to switch platform over Bitcoin wallet apps isn't going to be the slightest bit noticeable.

I'm no friend of Bitcoin, but won't disregarding early adopters lead them one step closer to becoming Microsoft?

They mention there were only 120K downloads. It may be true that bitcoin people are early adopters, but those early adopters aren't using wallets downloaded from the app store. For comparison December 2013 saw 3 billion total app downloads. Early adopters of iOS bitcoin wallet apps are a fraction of a fraction of a niche right now.

A) Bitcoin is not as big as you think, yet. 120K downloads is not that bad.

B) Since Apple is so hostile towards Bitcoin, many people have switched to better alternatives and simply don't care about Apple's private North Korea with an insane leader.

Any "dent" would be eclipsed by Apple running another TV ad in China or India.

I doubt they could care less.

It's not one dent that makes a difference. But a thousand little dents do make a difference.
