Cryptocurrency writer Scott Dedels stated on X that a bank blocked two Bitcoin transactions without providing any "specific" reason. Dedels now hopes people can withdraw their funds and argues that financial institutions should not control how customers decide to use their money. It is currently unclear which bank blocked Dedels' Bitcoin purchases. However, the author claims it was one of the "Big Five" Canadian banks. An insider revealed that more and more Canadian banks are keen to bolster their balance sheets. In this effort, banks are becoming increasingly sensitive and hoping to retain more funds to improve their lending capacity. This "sensitivity" explains why more and more banks are prohibiting the transfer of funds to cryptocurrency.
