It's rolled out in the UK with one if the best banking systems in the world. Plus like hell Signal is anonym, it still relies on an sms capable phone number, which is hard to get in many countries.

Ok.

I don't understand how UK selection is bad. You need to build to an addressable market and build in that.

Someone made an assesment that the UK made sense. Presumably that someone could be wrong. But they are going to try. Which is 100% better than the rest of the payment apps because they are closed, for profit, and sell your data

Re sms. Agree. But you do agree that prioritization is subjective? What signal leadership thinks it needs to maximize privacy and security may differ from your perspective, correct?

Riiight. A shitcoin scam is 100% better, than a banking system that has been polished to what it is by learning the hard way for the past 300 years. Got it.

EDIT

Because nobody needs this in the UK at all.
