I doubt you'll find many btc friendly banks, you could try opening an account at a local credit union.

If you are depositing in cash then the only people that knows what you have deposited is you and who you done the trade with, you should not have no problems for the time being as no personal identifying information is given i assume. I would not call anything that claims to be a bank friendly or trust worthy maybe i am just old fashioned but bitcoin allows us to be our own banks so i will live that way and trust no one with my coins except me. I would advise looking into it further but if i was you i would not worry at this point you are using cash deposits and i have to assume using an exchange like btc-e? If so just keep up to date with what the exchanges are up to and if they bring new rules what could affect your trading etc you will know to change tactics. Happy trading. |

Not sure if you can find any BTC-friendly banks out there. The best you can do is to open an account at a local credit union.

You better hope that Fidor bank expands to the US at some point well, that would be great, right Germany that is very conservative regarding Bitcoin has the edge here. |

of course, the credits unions tend to be more flexible. |

The link is from 2013, and the OP hasn't been updated for a long time. The discussion still goes on though, and you may get some information https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=264679.0 |

Any bank is friendly if you purchase via Cash Deposit on LocalBitcoins.

I have no idea about US banks, but try to look at smaller local banks... big banks are the ones that usually give problems.

This is good. Hope at some point they start accepting interest-bearing deposits. |

I think you need an offshore bank account. That does not care about bitcoin. I don't know about US laws, but in my area banks don't care where the funds came from. They didn't even know about bitcoin. lol

Bitcoin is like the anti bank, they hate it as it makes them obsolete. Hopefully we can just find a way to work around them completely. |

NOT US Bank. Those guys will give you trouble and pretend that they are protecting you from possible fraud. We've had no problems getting deposits from coinbase using another bank but it's much more local. -- novak |

Good advice how to purchase Bitcoin as long as you do not mind paying the premium but no bank is friendly the only bank that can be trusted is you |

THere are no banks in the US that are BTC friendly.
BOA and Chase are some of the worst, freezing accounts at the blink of an eye.
