We have added Brume Wallet (https://github.com/brumeproject/wallet) to our recommended wallet list.

This wallet allows fast standalone private key generation and address derivation for Ethereum, setting it apart as a truly distinctive option in the market, as no other consumer-grade wallets offer this capability. Additionally, it positions itself as a privacy-focused solution designed to operate seamlessly through Tor, underscoring its uniqueness.

Meanwhile this wallet is available for other platforms, we have decided to provide it as a mobile-only recommendation available on the main F-Droid repository for safety reasons.

We do not recommend its browser version because it requires a dangerous WebAssembly technology (aka "the modern-era Flash") to be enabled in the browser, which doesn't contribute anything good to the already heavily bloated landscape of the World Wide Web. (Learn about what dangers represents WASM and how to disable it here: https://github.com/stevespringett/disable-webassembly)

We sincerely hope that the developers will reconsider their decision to require WASM-enabled browser from users and make it optional in the future.

So? consider usdt as a centralized stablecoin ? if i understand correctly.

ERC transactions seem to be broken right now. Stuck at confirming transaction, and I have noticed many other TXs are having this issue.

Hey there,

I noticed that the ERC exchanges don't seem to be completing. I am stuck at "Confirming transaction... (0/12 confirmations)", and that seems to be the case for other people using eXch today too. Hopefully this can be fixed soon.

Thank you for your service.

Hey, do you know when eXch support is usually online? Hopefully it's still safe, been waiting hours for a TX to be confirmed from their end.

Okay, thank you for letting me know. Appreciate it.

Thank you, it has been fixed!

Probably true, but it's not only good for them but also for Lightning Labs, that is another centralized company that is behind Lightning Network.
This sounds a lot like centralization to me, especially when we know most people are using custodial LN wallets.
That being said, it's not bad for eXch to add support for USDT on LN.

Users will then be able to transfer these unpegged USDT tokens as they like. That could create some type of underground marketplace with people buying them at a cheap price in bulk and attempting to scam beginners and unsuspecting traders in P2P trades. People will need to know how to recognize the disavowed token in order to not get scammed with it. The fiat value of it on explorers like Etherscan gives away its real value.

They can sign all the deals they like, but Lightning Labs can't control the Lightning Network itself. It's still pure (uncensorable) Bitcoin Script, even using an "overlay" like Taproot Assets ...

IMO the deal only covers the implementation of Tether on Taproot Assets. The Taproot Assets universe function is however indeed an element where an "evil secret agreement" between Lightning Labs and Tether, if it exists, could lead to more control by Tether over the transactions. I have already written about that here earlier today.

In short, Lightning Labs could provide an "official-looking" universe for USDT cloning a Tether transaction blacklist (universes afaik are like block explorers with custom rules, or a "subset of transactions considered valid").

I think people forgot about USDT in onni network, which is USDT going back and forth in bitcoin blockchain. They isn't have any control over bitcoin network and they won't have . They were just issuing colored coins , and in taproot they will be doing something similar.

This was the first USDT implementation. They are barely used now... but there are still some transactions. Anyone can check in the omni Explorer.

Using taproot would be a much better solution as it allows a wider use of smartcontracts and functions.
