I was switching to that Up Bank (by Bendigo), but they straight refuse to let me fund my crypto account, so that’s out because I just want basic control of my own money.

I also have a Bank Australia account, but, while they like to pat themselves on the back about sustainability, their service and product is crap, imo.

So what else you got?

Edit: Just realised I should probably have posted this to AusFinance, but ah well!

    The difference being people aren’t regularly the victims of jerks getting into their Internet Banking and betting large sums of money on sportsball with their money. But they are victims of jerks transferring thousands into crypto where its out of reach of the classic financial system.

    I do agree there should be some sort of opt-in flag that says “yeah bro, this account will transfer money into crypto. Let the transaction through”. But it should be very non-trivial to opt-in, also. Like a branch visit where a human can sound you out to see if you’re being scammed.
