Hello valued Phoenix Wallet users! We have some important news to share with you. Our team is advising all users based in the US to safely withdraw their funds to another secure location. The services of Phoenix Wallet will soon be unavailable in the US jurisdiction.

We understand that the reasons behind Phoenix Wallet’s departure from the US jurisdiction are unclear at the moment. However, there have been reports linking this situation to the recent arrest of executives from Samourai Wallet.
