If anyone figure out a bitcoin friendly bank which let anyone open an account remotely, please kindly share the information.

very few. Transaction based on BTC threatens the banking industry which absolutely don't support the activities related BTC under its own banking system.

all banks are bitcoin friendly because it means nothing

I hope you're joking. Go to Chase bank and open an account saying it's for a bitcoin business, see if they let you. If you already have a Chase account, go tell them you've had some transactions that related with bitcoin. They'll try to reverse those transactions, or close your account completely.

This is really not so much Chase bank but is more Operation Chokepoint. Chase is merely following orders from the DOJ and the Obama administration.

Chase is notoriously anti bit coin. They also like to rake you over the coals with interest rates and fees on their credit cards so even if they became bit coin friendly they are one of my personal blacklist banks.

you must have missed the point can you quote the whole post next time

Just for the sake of posterity the original quote was actually cut off by the person I quoted. I actually tend to agree with the original post and your overall point.

For example Fidor bank seems to be on the front lines when it comes to bitcoin but their site doesn't even have an english version?
Do they or any of the other friendly ones actually work with foreigners?

yeah they are the exklusive partner of bitcoin.de , the biggest german exchange. i dont know why they dont have an english website.

they are also working with Kraken.

Core dev leaves me neg feedback #abuse #political

some banks you can open accounts remotely, like GE savings

it is any coincidence that Chase (part of JP Morgan Chase group i assume)
is the part of the biggest banking group and is the most anti bitcoin?

By friendly I mean that they won't terminate your account because you are involved in bitcoin

All banks in all countries need to follow kyc and aml.

In this regard, there is no friendly bank that won't blacklist you if your fiat transaction exceed certain threshold.

Hi,
What do you mean with that "bitcoin friendly bank" May be they wil be friendly if you store your fisical BTC into their safe , dont see other way a bank to be friendly to BTC...
At least in Bulgaria bankers dont know bout BTC. I worked in a Bank for couple of years as a sales manager and now one from my co workers knew about BTC.
