  The behavioral pattern here is a classic example of regulatory arbitrage: Google’s initial strict licensing requirements triggered a feedback loop of developer pushback and industry scrutiny

  Google’s surprising change in policy concerning cryptographic portfolios has sparked interest and debate. Initially, Google planned to enforce strict license requirements for non-guardian crypto wallets on the Play Store. This decision faced backlash from developers and industry experts, prompting Google to reverse their stance. The new policy excludes non-guardian wallets from the stringent license requirements, acknowledging the unique attributes of these wallets that prioritize user control over third-party entities. This shift aims to prevent excessive regulation that could stifle innovation and limit user options.
