AfAIK wero needs Google Play Integrity. So you are still stuck with Google.

When that are said. I 100% agree with you - one step at a time.

I think Wero will no longer depend on that in 3–5 years. It's just real challenges that the European banking system needs to figure out.

The EU works slow, but it does move :)

Kind of like the Ents in LOTR

Well 2 weeks ago I have managed to send and received a wero transaction from my /e/Os without Google play. Someone is wrong here
