CZ’s stance on the subject was clear
Banking problems, which have become increasingly complex lately, were directed to CZ, thus removing the question marks in mind. Participating in an episode of the Bankless Podcast on May 29, CZ took a humorous question from Twitter phenomenon DegenSpartan. DegenSpartan, stating his question to CZ, “Can you please buy a bank and make it crypto-friendly?”said.
CZ went on to state his views on this chain of events, starting with the answer “We looked at this” to the question;
“The truth is much more complex than the concept. You buy a bank, it only works in one country, and you still have to deal with that country’s banking regulators. That doesn’t mean you can buy a bank and do whatever you want to do.”
