Even more important to set up bank accounts that you only do crypto 'biz' with. Heard about many bank accounts being shut down due to 'sus money laundering'. Really painful if its your main bank account

Timely substack post.

Shared this on twitter the other day but feel it’s worth sharing on here for anyone who doesn’t use twitter. Chase prevented me from buying BTC via CashApp and BTC/ETH on Kraken recently.

Automatically labeled my transactions as “fraud” and had to dispute it with the fraud department. Activity was consistent with my account going back a long time. Never received a clear reason why from the representative. Luckily had a few crypto free bank accounts already.

Do you really think banks will suspend bank accounts that have interacted with exchanges? Could you expound on that a bit?
