Some thoughts as a mutiny angel investor. Open source wallets are hard. They’re even harder to monetize. The samourai/wasabi shit made that monetization even harder. Having seen some of the financials, I feel confident stating the team isn’t/wasn’t “pocketing money”. They are a small scrappy startup team working with limited resources. I believe they are doing their best / did their best with the wallet. I don’t believe anything nefarious is going on. Startups are just fucking hard.
