“Apparently”, according to this “X post”. There’s a link to a class action complaint (https://fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/legaldocs/zdpxrbjyrpx/Apple%20Cash%2020231117.pdf https://fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/legaldocs/zdpxrbjyrpx/...) That’s 58 pages of legalese, though, so a link to where that’s claimed would be useful.

Page 33 of 58: "146. For example, in June 2023, Apple’s Apple Developer agreements prevented cryptocurrency wallet apps Zeus and Damus from providing decentralized payments on iOS and iPadOS devices"

  That doesn’t say they deactivated a developer account. It also can mean, and I think that’s the normal way to interpret such a statement, that they rejected their app. I also don’t see an argument there that being cited in an anti trust case is a factor there. This claim may well be true, and it may be hard to prove, but they should at least try, and this doesn’t do that for me.

    > That doesn’t say they deactivated a developer account. You seem to be a bit confused. The lawsuit wasn't about deactivating the developer account. The link just shows that Zeus was cited in someone else's anti-trust lawsuit. You complained about "58 pages of legalese", so I pointed out the exact page number where Zeus was cited. The deactivation of the developer account occurred after the lawsuit. If you're not convinced about the reason for the account deactivation, that's fine, but the "58 pages of legalese" complaint is kind of irrelevant.

There are two screenshots on the post that directly show the issue. I'm not logged in to Twitter on this device and I can see them, but if you can't maybe the nitter link someone else posted would work for you.

  Those are a page that mentions rejecting an app but, AFAICT, doesn’t mention account deactivation and a redacted screenshot showing a failed login. However, I don’t see any argument for a causation chain between the two. I know there may not be much of a paper trail, but they could at least have stated things such as - whether they received mail from Apple about account deactivation and if so, what it said. - timeline: when was the app rejected, and when did they discover their account was gone?
