With Utreexo, when you download a wallet app, it’ll have the utreexo roots somewhere around the tip. The wallet will start downloading blocks from there on.
One thing I considered that might be dangerous is that app autoupdates will update the roots every single time. I don’t think this changes the trust-assumption but was nonetheless somewhat disturbed by this.
Maybe it’s nothing but dunno, we’ll see.
