Does Apple allow crypto-currency mining in ios app?

I have been looking into the feasibility of creating an app that mines crypto-currency. I have been searching the appstore for similar apps but none have come up where the miner is part of the app.

Does anyone know if Apple allows mining on device from an approved app?

Solution 1:

Section 3.1.5 Cryptocurrencies explains in specific detail what review guidelines affect mining apps on device as well as address monetary wallet apps.

Apps may not mine for cryptocurrencies unless the processing is performed off device.

In 2017 the guidelines were not as clear App Store Review Guidelines

Back then, section 2.4.2 contained the following:

Design your app to use power efficiently. Apps should not rapidly drain battery, generate excessive heat, or put unnecessary strain on device resources.

Use of that clause to reject any crypto currency mining, which would by definition be CPU/GPU intentive, was always possible and now that potential ban is explicit.
