Research reveals that most debanking incidents affecting US-based individuals and crypto-related businesses aren't random—they stem from regulatory pressure exerted on financial institutions. Government agencies have been pushing banks to de-risk by cutting ties with crypto firms and digital asset services. This coordinated pressure from authorities creates a chilling effect, where institutions proactively close accounts or deny services to avoid compliance headaches and potential penalties. The pattern highlights how policy enforcement mechanisms ripple through traditional finance, effectively gatekeeping access for the entire blockchain ecosystem.

Here we go again with this? Banks are cornered, and we get cleaned out. This game rule is really damn ridiculous.

The banks have given up, and as soon as the government applies pressure, they all run away. How many times have we seen this trick...

Banks have really become the government's conveyor belt, stopping at will with no room for negotiation.

The bank's move is really brilliant. To put it simply, it's the government pressing down to harvest crypto retail investors. --- So debanking is the government's "I want it all" strategy, with traditional finance becoming the enforcer. --- Now it's better, those who want to get on board have to bypass the Great Firewall to find Coinbase, and domestic restrictions are even tighter... another hundredfold opportunity killed in the cradle. --- Damn, I was wondering why I suddenly got frozen and blocked, turns out it's all policy pressure. The banks are also forced into it. --- Policy enforcement mechanisms ripple through, sounding very sophisticated, but to put it simply, it's just fancy ways of harvesting retail investors. --- This is the real breakdown; the entire ecosystem is being gatekept, and protocol tokens are also getting hit. --- I just want to ask, if this continues, what future does blockchain really have... or is this just the beginning of a bottoming process? --- Banks have become puppets of the government. I've seen through this a long time ago, but no one dares to say it.

The banks' move here is really something else. Whatever happened to the free market they talked about? They all folded the moment the government gave the word.

Banks, stop pretending. Basically, they're just being forced by regulatory authorities and are actively shedding customers.

The bank's move is really brilliant. When government pressure comes, they directly shift the blame onto us. To be honest, it's the regulation's fault that they want us to take responsibility.
