If you are using HSBC as your bank switch immediately!

Recently my friend tried to send money (several times) from his HSBC account to binance and it was blocked.

It turns out HSBC doesn't allow payments for cryptocurrencies. They also banned buying microstrategy stocks.

I'm so shocked they have the audacity to do this! Surely this solidifies and shows the importance of decentralisation in crypto.

I also found out ironically that they helped money launder for drug cartels in Mexico.

If you are still using this awful bank please do yourself a favour and switch.
