🚨 BANKS CONTINUE TO BLOCK CRYPTO USERS, “DEBANKING” CONCERNS GROW
🏦 Reports show that traditional banks are still restricting or outright blocking transfers to crypto exchanges, creating major friction for users trying to access the market.
📊 Industry studies indicate that up to 40% of payments to crypto platforms are being delayed or blocked by banks, while exchanges report rising customer access issues.
⚠️ Many crypto holders and companies are experiencing “debanking,” where accounts face limits, closures, or strict transfer caps due to crypto-related activity.
🔍 Surveys also reveal that around 80% of exchanges have seen increased banking friction over the past year, showing the trend is worsening rather than improving.
🧠 Banks often justify these restrictions through compliance, risk management, and anti-fraud policies, especially after past scandals and regulatory pressure.
📉 The result is a structural bottleneck: crypto adoption grows, but access to fiat rails remains controlled by legacy financial institutions.
🚨 Overall, the ongoing banking barriers highlight a deeper clash between traditional finance and the crypto ecosystem, where access to payment infrastructure is becoming a key battleground.
