A year ago, putting a wallet app on Google Play was enough. Users found you, downloaded you, and you were in the game. That’s changing fast.
In August 2025, Google Play said custodial crypto wallets need licenses in over 15 regions, including FinCEN in the US and MiCA in the EU. Miss the paperwork, lose your spot. Non-custodial apps were spared, but the signal is loud. Visibility now runs through regulators.
Think of it like music streaming. You can have a hit track, but if Spotify drops you, the audience never hears it. The same is now true for wallets. The best features mean nothing if the app store shelves are empty. Too many projects still treat compliance as a back-office chore. It has moved to the center stage. Licenses are not paperwork; they are tickets to distribution. That’s why firms are looking at partners like Antier. Our white label crypto wallet services are built with regulatory frameworks in mind, from VARA, to FinCEN, and MiCA, so wallets stay live where users download.
