RIP Paytm, gPay and all.

But sadly whatsapp pay can never have >30% market share because of an absolutely strange rule of 30% cap

Exactly! considering the reach of fake news and forwards on Whatsapp… Imagine the reach of fraudsters on whatsapp… And It has over 400M+ users(India) including people from rural india who have just learned how to pay with mobiles using almost secure methods like Gpay, phonepe, etc.
THIS IS JUST BAD….
