Operation Choke Point - Czech Edition
There are no banks left that accept any crypto business. The last one - Equa Bank was acquired by Raiffeisenbank and despite of official assurances that they won't stop with crypto, they did just that.
Not really surprising to anyone, there are some suboptimal solutions for the crypto (but mostly Bitcoin) services and I'm sure they had backup plans ready for years.
I hope the non-KYC ATMs won't be affected... but also that other solutions like Vexl (still operating only in Czechia and Slovakia) or HodlHodl and Bisq will become more popular.
