Summary0010465: Allow disabling direct deposit from wallets
DescriptionAt Datenspuren, we disabled direct deposits to fiat bank accounts (among others, for regulation compliance) using https://git.taler.net/taler-deployment.git/tree/regional-currency/setup-exchange.sh#n226.

Deposits to libeufin banks cannot disabled the same way, I presume, since they should be possible for paying out merchants.

At Datenspuren, there have been several users nevertheless attempting to deposit to their fiat bank account: some with random user accounts, probably offered by their wallet, some with an IBAN as their libeufin account name and some to the (probably also wallet-suggested) libeufin bank admin account. Telling people this is not possible and explicitly disabling the IBAN account for deposits is apparently not enough. Could we have away of disabling the deposit functionality altogether for wallets (so users do not get tempted to try it)?
TagsNo tags attached.
