What they said is no different to the policy in the United Kingdom.
The banks will do everything in their power to stop the conversion of fiat into Bitcoins.
This is why the UK has no exchange, they close down the bank account of everyone who tries to convert it, under the guise of money laundering.
The most adoptive country is the USA. They have an exchange, coinbase, and law enforcement who take Bitcoin theft seriously...
“Fraudsters are not beyond the reach of the SEC just because they use Bitcoin or another virtual currency to mislead investors and violate the federal securities laws,”

Still I mine Litecoins too just in case.
