    Android is open source so any European company can just fork their flavor the same way Huawei did.

    And there are alternatives to visa/mastercard but their local to each country: Cartes Bancaires in France, Girocard in Germany etc.

      Local alternatives are not good enough. We need something that works internationally, otherwise it’s not a true alternative.

      We also have MobilePay here in Denmark, Swish in Sweden, Bancomat in Italy.

      But I am still dubious there is proper sovereignty in the whole stack each one of these run on.

        Nope, they just integrate visa/mastercard for international payments like most other European providers.

          That was true, once upon a time. “Carte Bleue” is part of Visa Europe (which has been reintegrated into Visa. Inc in 2015) since 2010.
