A Stealth iEthereum Implementation Thesis

How is iEthereum Going to Show its Face?

Thesis: The Integration of iEthereum into Apple’s Ecosystem: Decentralization, Pre-mining, and the Future of Web3

Abstract

iEthereum, an ERC-20 token launched in 2017, has been surrounded by speculation regarding its true origins, with theories pointing towards Apple as a potential sponsor or silent partner. Given its resemblance to Apple’s branding and the timing of its launch, this theory has gained traction. However, the question remains: if Apple were indeed involved, how would they integrate iEthereum into their ecosystem while maintaining the integrity of decentralization and avoiding accusations of centralized control? This paper delves into how iEthereum's decentralized pre-mined distribution and long-standing open-market availability provide a strong foundation for avoiding centralization concerns. It also explores how Apple could incorporate iEthereum into its financial ecosystem, focusing on strategic approaches to balance both corporate oversight and decentralized values. Finally, this paper will examine iEthereum’s future role within Web3 and decentralized finance (DeFi) and how Apple might facilitate that transition.

Note: Everything discussed in this article is pure speculation and game theory. We are making no claims that iEthereum is an Apple product or has a developing wallet. For those of you that are new to the iEthereum Advocacy Trust website; iEthereum (the erc20 token) contains the Apple brand within its logo. Therefore we discuss this speculation and have fun theorizing. We are not the founders of iEthereum.

Since its launch in 2017, iEthereum has operated with a unique and simple premise: to be a decentralized digital asset, non complicated, simple, easily accessible and available to the public. The token’s structure, history, and distribution model have sparked debates, especially with the persistent theory that Apple might be the silent partner behind its creation. This theory arises from multiple factors: the similarities between the iEthereum logo and Apple’s branding, the strategic timing of its launch, and Apple’s ongoing interest in blockchain and distributed ledger, value transfer technologies.

While there is no confirmed link between Apple and iEthereum, the possibility raises an important question: if Apple were to reveal itself as connected to iEthereum, how would it manage the inherent contradictions between its traditional centralized corporate structure and iEthereum’s decentralized ethos? Furthermore, how could Apple use iEthereum within its own ecosystem, such as Apple Pay, without diluting the principles of decentralization? This paper will explore how iEthereum’s structure may offer Apple an opportunity to bridge these two worlds.
