- bank accounts being frozen due to investigation of potential money laundering
Apparently they had problems with the german account from the start, due to allowing large deposits and withdrawals and having no verification system in place. So people used phished access to other peoples accounts to deposit large sums and used bitcoins to launder.
At the very start of bitcoin there was supposedly an investigation but dropped.
Its back now and both the german account as well as the polish (which he has as "workaround" of the problems in germany at first) are getting frozen.
Ouch, this is a serious problem. For other services like this as well. Bank regulation gets serious attention in Europe after the recent crisis.
