but they also try to sell you their Bitcoin ETF derivative for which not only do they charge relatively high commissions (several € per operation), but it's also not the real Bitcoin, losing the entirety of your sovereignty.

wow... I am speechless. This is worse than I thought. The banking scam is going even deeper.

Sorry (not sorry), I am bankless. Only Bitcoin. Your story is quite frighten because it shows the situation that many bitcoiners do not (want) to see it: the banksters and govs now want to create a false illusion among normies, that buying these crap ETFs (paper IOU bitcoin), are the real Bitcoin, the so called "approved" bitcoin.

This is the biggest danger ever existed for Bitcoin.

This is another trick in the long list they have, and if they do it is because they are afraid. We must insist a lot more about the concept "not your keys, not your bitcoins".

Just type "wise account closed" in youtube and you'll see dozens of videos of people that got their account closed because they were sending money to exchanges. I know there are many other banks that do it, you can do a research for any bank you are interested in.
