    It’s a long hard reality that anyone who wants to operate in this space has to deal with. You think it’s unfair you can’t cash your check for free and have to pay a $10 fee? Take a look at what the bank is required by the BSA and later KYC

    That is a really bad example to use as there is no general agreement on the issue. The Italian government obviously has a biased opinion in wanting to credit one of their citizens(I’m actually confused if he was Italian or American because
