John Ternus, Apple’s current Senior Vice President of Hardware Engineering, has been named as his successor.

Tim Cook oversaw Apple’s rise from a $350 billion valuation in 2011 to a staggering $4 trillion powerhouse, turning the company into a juggernaut.

As reported by U.Today, Cook confirmed that he personally held crypto back in 2021, calling it "reasonable" to own digital assets for diversification purposes.

However, Apple itself never integrated a native crypto wallet or launched its own coin under its leadership.
