I tried to help someone buy their first bit of Bitcoin a few weeks ago. TD Bank in Canada blocked all his attempts to buy any on multiple different sites. All the notices of the failed transactions said, "your financial institution has disabled cryptocurrency purchases."

This was unfortunate, but it tells me that the banks are scared to death of Bitcoin. These are the same people that created all these bubbles and make profits from debt slavery saying they are "protecting" their client by not allowing them to buy $200 of Bitcoin.

Little by little people are catching on and the gig will be up before too long.
