Privacy in Bitcoin finds a home again in the U.S.
Wallet of Satoshi announced its return to the United States with a self-custody wallet for the Bitcoin Lightning network. Although technical details have yet to be revealed, the mere fact of being "approved in the U.S." marks a key change for solutions focused on financial privacy.
This return comes after Donald Trump's executive order in March 2025 to create a Strategic Reserve of Bitcoin, which has generated a more friendly environment for cryptocurrencies.
The new wallet promises not to require KYC, a policy that has become uncommon on crypto platforms due to regulations. This means that users will be able to operate without providing their personal data, regaining control of their privacy.
Additionally, as a non-custodial wallet, funds remain completely under the user's control. This represents a significant advancement compared to models like Coinbase, where data leaks have exposed customers to risks such as extortion.
Wallet of Satoshi had already left the U.S. market in 2023, pressured by regulations against privacy. Today, it returns adapted to a new legal context, offering a simple, fast, and secure experience through Lightning Network.
This return symbolizes a victory for digital sovereignty and a hope for those who defend the right to privacy in the crypto world.
