Google has never really bent to the wishes of government, and has a history of going with the flow to where people are going. And the company excels at giving people what they want, just look at their range of products and its quality. Facebook is firmly heading towards the crypto world, which means FB's research shows the metaverse and crypto will become huge and the place to be. There is no doubt that other big tech are already gearing up to be there as well. Tesla is bringing out its own token as well, did you know? 😁 I got an invite from them a few days ago.
So I'd say Google and Apple are both in a hurry to get into crypto, but obviously they don't want to rush in with half-baked products. When they announce their official presence there it will be with a huge bang.
