## What it is
Status is a free, open-source mobile Ethereum client combining a private messenger, crypto wallet, and Web3 browser, built with ClojureScript, React Native, and re-frame for Android and iOS. This legacy repository is archived and deprecated; development has moved to the status-im/status-app codebase.

## Use cases
- send and receive Ethereum tokens from a self-custodial mobile wallet
- chat privately over a peer-to-peer network without middlemen
- browse and interact with decentralized apps on mobile
- join and create decentralized communities
- manage ENS names and ERC-20 tokens like SNT
- run go-ethereum directly on a mobile device

## When to choose
- you need to study or fork the original ClojureScript/React Native Status mobile codebase
- you maintain a legacy deployment of the Status mobile app
- you want a historical reference for Ethereum wallet + messenger architecture on mobile

## When to avoid
- you want to build on or contribute to the current Status app - use status-im/status-app instead
- you need a maintained, production-ready Ethereum wallet or messenger
- you expect bug fixes, security patches, or new features from this repository
