Analysis

OVERVIEW

Wasabi is a self-custodial Bitcoin desktop wallet from zkSNACKs Ltd in Gibraltar, built by pseudonymous developer Adam Ficsor, combining Tor, compact-filter sync, Silent Payments and hardware wallet support.

LIMITS

zkSNACKs shut down its own CoinJoin coordinator in June 2024 under OFAC/US Treasury pressure, so CoinJoin now depends on a third-party coordinator the user selects, and that provider's policy and availability sit outside zkSNACKs' control.

USEFUL FOR

Self-custodial Bitcoin desktop use for people who will separately vet a third-party CoinJoin coordinator rather than rely on a built-in one.
