zkSNACKs: US users will be banned from using Wasabi Wallet indefinitely

zkSNACKs, the developer of the privacy-enhanced Bitcoin wallet Wasabi Wallet, announced today that users from the United States will be indefinitely banned from using their product. This decision is likely due to the arrest of the founder of Samourai Wallet. According to the company's announcement, users from the United States and related territories are now blocked by an IP address firewall and "cannot access their website, download and use Wasabi Wallet, and any related products and services, including API and RPC interfaces." The announcement cited "recent statements by US authorities" as the reason.
