Закрытие счетов Джека Маллерса: JPMorgan под сканером критики за поддержку антикриптоагентств Translation: Jack Mallers Accounts Closed: JPMorgan Under Fire for Supporting Anti-Crypto Agencies

JPMorgan Chase has closed the accounts of Strike CEO Jack Mallers without providing specific reasons. The entrepreneur revealed this information himself.

According to Mallers, the incident took place in October. He noted that the decision seems peculiar, as his father had been a private client of the bank for over 30 years.

When directly questioned about the reasons for the account closure, JPMorgan employees stated that they «are not allowed» to disclose such information. In an official letter, the bank referred to identified «suspicious activity» and the need to comply with regulatory requirements.

The organization also cautioned that opening new accounts in the future would be impossible. Mallers wryly remarked that he framed the letter.

Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino publicly expressed his support for Mallers, referring to the incident as a case of «turning out for the better.»

Users have linked the situation to «Operation Chokepoint 2.0» — an alleged covert pressure from U.S. authorities on banks to deny services to representatives of the cryptocurrency sector.

In August, Donald Trump signed an order aimed at combating financial discrimination against digital businesses.

“Bitcoin will stand the test of time. Organizations trying to undermine it will fail and turn to dust. They cannot stop people’s choice to be free,” Ardoino wrote.

It’s worth noting that in May, Strike, led by Mallers, offered users the «HODL lending» option, allowing them to borrow funds secured by the first cryptocurrency.
