Trust Wallet was recently removed from the Google Play Store, and the official response stated that it was caused by a technical issue. This incident has sparked some reflection—how many users in the current crypto wallet ecosystem still rely on wallet products like Trust Wallet from centralized app stores?

From the trend of app store policies, the review pressure faced by Web3 wallet applications is gradually increasing. Whether or not it was truly just a technical malfunction, this incident reflects the tension between current wallet services and mainstream application ecosystems. For users holding assets like $TWT, $BNB, and others, balancing wallet security and usability has clearly become an unavoidable practical issue.

TWT2.3%

BNB1.7%

What is Google hinting at... I don't believe it's just a technical issue; they should have built their own ecosystem long ago.

Technical issues? Haha, I already downloaded the APK long ago. That app store stuff is bound to have problems sooner or later.

Technical issues? Ha, I knew something was off... You should have built your own wallet long ago. Who still clings to app stores?

Technical issues? Haha, I don't believe you. This is just the beginning of clearing the field. Now I remember I have to use a self-custody wallet, so annoying. Google's combination punch is well executed. How many more this year? It was about time to set up a node ourselves. Why still talk about centralization? TWT holders should be crying. Usability is maximized, but this could go wrong. Now it's good—everyone will have to learn how to manage their private keys. I feel like platforms like App Store are brewing some big moves. The worst part is these so-called "technical issues." Who would believe that?
