Wow.

Scary stuff.
I use muun wallet, but sad to see this if its true.
Jeez, major casualty
Well damn. This was my backup wallet in case my node messed up.
USA is quickly turning into a failed rogue state, how long until official banana republic status?
Wow.. already conceding!
Being removed from the Play Store shouldn't necessitate emptying the existing Android wallets, bc people can still sideload apps via F-Droid, obtanium, or direct apk download. This means that Phoenix users may be in legally grey territory using LSP's. Which is concerning.
What’s it portend for primal wallet?
Primal wallet is powered by @strike. They are KYC-compliant, so it shouldn’t affect it.
Get your app updates from obtainium. Don't rely on centralised stores.
Free and open source on grapheneos.
👀
APK, VPN and Tor
We don't have to be the best, we just have to be right.
Ughhhhhh!!!!
No! That's my favorite
Imagine still using an app store.
Its been a rough week ☹️. This was easily the best lightning mobile wallet to onboard new people to.

Americans losing what is probably the best semi custodial LN wallet.
Its fully non custodial
Just emptied my wallet. Sad day for America.
Not sad, expected. These things will continue. The state does not want you to have any measure of freedom. They will continue pushing to destroy it. This is precisely the reason that things like Nostr, bitcoin, LN and any other number of decentralized tech exists. More people need to get de-Googled phones. Download apps from providers. Own their digital experience, not allow corporations to curate them. Awesome software will need to be created/hosted in a decentralized fashion. There is a way to push back and win. We have the tools, they will be deployed, the people will rise above the state.
really sucks 😬
Phoenix wallet is obeying in advance, teaching power what it can do.
Something is going down.
never a dull day in bitcoin land 🥴
i need to recommend a new lightning app now (it is nostr:npub1mutnyacc9uc4t5mmxvpprwsauj5p2qxq95v4a9j0jxl8wnkfvuyque23vg by the way)

Isn't the ability to force close channels an essential part of making LN non-trusted.
Well there goes that.
Major oefing, why not just wait for apple to ban yo ass
has anyone talked to Phoenix? why did they do this?
Because of the FBI warning yesterday
This guy nostr:npub1cn4t4cd78nm900qc2hhqte5aa8c9njm6qkfzw95tszufwcwtcnsq7g3vle
He knows their motives, their trade offs, and why they did it.
Just ask him. He’s got all the answers for everyone.
? 
they want to stay out of jail, apparently.
I have to imagine all LSPs will be getting pressured like this. Any routing node operator seems targetable too. (Not FUDing but if non-custodying is no longer a defense, lots of stuff gets redefined)
This should be an easy legal win, however. If Chevron gets struck down this is blatant executive legislation.
does this affect Canada
Sorry to hear that
Doesn't this imply we can still download from github?
Can't really blame them for not wanting to be extradited and thrown into an American gulag.

Refusing business with USA is a strong feedback. I wish so many companies did it that the citizens would revolt to dismantle the communism they let in.
Good thing I never used an app store. #Obtainium
Phoenix app spontaneously disappeared from my android phone (in Europe) hours before I read this news. Can app store pull apps from your phone? Re-installed. Luckily I had the seed or I would have been rugged?
