Previous to the announcement, some neighborhood members speculated that Google and Apple had banned the pockets from their respective app shops. Nevertheless, Pockets of Satoshi’s newest replace, mixed with the truth that the app is accessible on worldwide variations of every app retailer, means that the shops didn’t impose a ban.

One other commentator, Kevin Rooke, observed that the app just lately skilled excessive volumes, dealing with over 1.1 million of Lightning transactions November.
