Banks already do a lot of stuff to prevent their customers from being scammed, or engaging in criminal activities like drug dealing or money laundering. Since this is pretty much what crypto currencies seem to be used for, this is just another thing on that list of shady activities.
- anonym29 3y agoHey, don't diss cryptocurrencies like that! They're not only good for pedestrian crimes like drug dealing and money laundering, cryptocurrency is the the currency of choice for the sophisticated criminal - the ransomware operator, the tax dodger, and the sanctions evader love it!
- anonzzzies 3y agoThis has nothing to do with protecting customers from scams but everything with US pushed extreme AML policies and laws. The banks have to show the money trail and they worry the can’t with crypto so they just block it so they can tick regulatory boxes while shitting all over their customers. It’s very much not a good thing or because of you, the dear client. No one cares until their account gets randomly closed without recourse.
