  Acinq‘s Bitcoin wallet, Phoenix Wallet, and zkSNACKs’ Wasabi Wallet have decided to discontinue their services for customers based in the United States because of the recent crackdown on two major self-custodial cryptocurrency wallet providers.

  Acinq and zkSNACKs have raised concerns about the legitimacy of self-custodial wallet providers as legitimate money service businesses, especially after the action taken by the U.S. regulatory agencies against Consensys and Samourai Wallet. “zkSNACKs is now strictly prohibiting U.S. users from using its services,” the company wrote in a statement on April 27.

  Acinq stated on April 26 that recent statements made by US authorities raise concerns about the possibility of self-custodial wallet providers, Lightning service providers, and even Lightning nodes being classified as Money Services Businesses and subjected to regulation.

  zkSNACKs Deadline

  zkSNACKs stated on April 27 that it is now strictly prohibiting U.S. users from accessing its services due to recent U.S. announcements.

In contrast, European regulators have recently eased potential proposed regulations concerning self-custody wallets.

  On March 23, the European Parliaments lead committees scrapped a 1,000 euro ($1,080) limit on crypto payments from self-hosted crypto wallets as part of new anti-money laundering laws.
