Maybe Apple should get into cryptocurrency-exchange business.That one comes courtesy of RBC Capital analyst Mitch Steves, who picked up coverage of Apple shares on Monday with an Outperform rating, lifting the firm’s target for the share price to $171, from $154. Apple stock was up 0.1% to $136.91.The hot topic on Apple lately has been speculation that the company is nearing a deal with Hyundai on creating anApple Car(or maybe an iCar, MacCar, or Jobsmobile.) Steves thinks that a car might make sense eventually, but he is more intrigued by the idea that Apple could dip its toe into the cryptocurrency markets.“When we look at Apple as an ecosystem player we note that the firm has industry-leading software, security and a 1.5B installed base [of hardware devices],” he wrote in a research note.In its recent December-quarter earnings announcement, Apple disclosed that the installed base of iPhones alone is now above 1 billion.Steves agrees that an electric car could be a long-term opportunity, but he cautioned that competing with Tesla is a higher-risk proposition, which is likely to require more than $10 billion in research and development costs. He sees a better opportunity in leveragingApple Wallet, software on every iPhone that is used to manage Apple Pay, airline and event tickets, and other items.Were Apple to enter the crypto-exchange business, Steves said, they would “immediately gain market share and disrupt the industry.” He noted that Square (SQ) generates about $1.6 billion a quarter from Bitcoin-related revenue on an installed base of about 30 million.Apple, he said, has an installed base of more than 1.5 billion.
