Title: Which banks in Europe are bitcoin business friendly & won't close your account? Post by: throwaway084575 on January 05, 2015, 07:43:36 PM Hi Folks
Is there a white list or black list of banks who have been known to just shut accounts because of bitcoin related commerce? We are about to launch a bitcoin only business and want to have a bank account to use with bitpay and don't want to wake up one day with account suspended simply because we only accept BTC. What banks are recommended by people that are bitcoin friendly and won't just shut my account 1when they get funds only from bitpay.

To get you started: Plenty germans had the same problem with their personal bank accounts and praise the fidor bank[1] now, but I personally have to experience with them and I was unable to find an english version of their homepage.

BTW afaik no banks are against bitcoin in EU.
