Chivo is a fiat/Bitcoin wallet, so it brings all the fiat things into it.
Note that you can use any other Bitcoin only wallet in El Salvador (or anywhere else) and you shouldn't have these issues.

You can't freeze a bitcoin wallet. They are freezing the USD part of the chivo wallet.

True, but you can also use a non-custodial Bitcoin wallet.

Wasabi is a piece of garbage collaborating with LE. Their anonset is fake and anyone who digged in Coinjoins understand it's crap
Chivo is a joke as well

That's seriously dumb as fuck.
What if :
wasabi > transitory > chivo
Will they block this?
If no, it is useless.
If yes, they will end up blocking random persons wallet. It can even be used to attack competition. You want to piss a competitor buy their product from a wasabi wallet.

What is the risk of using Wasabi? Do other places flag it?
