the problem with this is that hosted wallets are often eshops and those are the ones that have to comply.
so you would have your lightning wallet and can't pay anyone legally
so what they are really promoting is the emergence of parallel markets and proxy merchants. I guess they really don't want taxes from the Bitcoin economy.
I woke up and chose optimism.
The EU's new rules do not apply on self-hosted wallets because they know they can't regulate that anyways.
Do the work. Run your own setup. We have the tools. The only thing stoping you, is you.
If the EU by accident promotes self-hosting, be my guest.
