US Users Banned Indefinitely From Using Wasabi Wallet

According to PANews, zkSNACKs, the development company behind the privacy-enhanced Bitcoin wallet Wasabi Wallet, has announced an indefinite ban on its products for users in the United States. This decision is likely triggered by the arrest of the founder of Samourai Wallet earlier this week. As per the company's announcement, the ban will be enforced through the use of an IP address firewall, preventing users from the US and related regions from accessing its website, downloading, and using the Wasabi Wallet, as well as any related products and services, including API and RPC interfaces. The company cited 'recent statements issued by US authorities' as the reason for this decision.
