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.
