New crypto-friendly banks!

"Swiss private banks, Vontobel and Falcon Bank are among the lenders that are agreeing to handle cryptocurrency investments on behalf of their clients. Germany’s Fidor Bank and Liechtenstein’s Bank Frick are also providing such services."

I have a feeling that some of these will require some pretty heft starting balances but it is good to know that not ALL banks are anti-crypto!

If anyone has any experiences with any of these banks, please post them here.

You can get an account at fidor.de relatively easy. (use chrome translate, their videoID ppl speak english)

Bank Frick is mainly (online) business.

Vontobel, has jumped on the ICO bandwagon, and is 'expensive'.

Falcon Bank I do not now.

I spoke to Vontobel. They don't open operational accounts. If the company has surplus of money they want to keep - no problem. They are mainly focused on investments. Negative interest rates applicable above €500,000. Relationship starts from €1 million.
