So my banks just complained. Apparently churning too much money in and out of exchanges has them worried shitless that the taxman will complain. Might have to register as a business to keep trading at the current levels of volume. Not sure I wanna deal with that shit. Especially the part where I have to give up half the profit. Blah.

All your banks at once?
Two of em. One is closing the account (started it specifically to trade bitcoin, which they knew and agreed to - fuckers). The other just told us to knock it off with the big transfers.

Wow, that REALLY sucks. What country are you in? Any ideas on how you are going to work around this shit?


There's a thread with a list of bitcoin hostile (and friendly) banks worldwide.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=264679.0

The OP's list has recently been updated, and the last few pages give some useful up to date information. Ibian might find a friendly bank from that thread.
Nothing for Denmark.

Some of our banks have recently banned their employees from buying bitcoin, under the pretense that they are worried they will do something illegal, or lose their money. The poor dears. That's 30k+ people just for one bank mentioned in the headline, in a country of not even 6 million people. Might be time to start thinking of moving elsewhere.
