What's caused this wallet to be so heavily targeted? What is it that they claim to have done?

All of this has come about from back when there were no such regulations for a thing that was regarded as a fad and hand-waved away as a joke, and only now is been taken seriously. It's a classic case of making judgements on-the-fly, and then retro-fitting regulation to prevent disruption to a corrupted system. We all know this. Honesty would look like looking at the past, acknowledging what has happened, and applying regulation to the future. Right or wrong.

Interesting, but there are other private wallets that have done the same or similar? Lighting wallets etc. Just seems strange to target them only and no one else

The misinformation and fake propaganda so called "journalist" who praises shitcoines like Ethereum that give her money created out of thin air and accuses Bitcoiners in all sins on planet Earth is at work again. Another fuck up.

image I'm so not surprised and hope as many as possible see this and somebody compiles a list of SCAMourai apologists - and we agree to cancel those. Sorry guys, you let people to trust these scammers where there are better alternatives. All the privacy theater was for nothing. A waste of time and fees and might well mean people go to jail because of you PoS!

They were by far the biggest and most socially prominent. Common government tactic is to go for the biggest target in an area of “concern” and hope the rest fall in line from fear. Truth is the government can never stop every Bitcoin privacy focused project/software - they don’t have the knowledge or resources. Same as the war on drugs. But they can try to scare people into not pursuing them for fear of jail.
