Joe Lubin, CEO of Ethereum software developer Consensus sys, said that Consensus sys has been hit by Operation Chokepoint twice and its bank accounts have been cancelled, the most recent case involving a large U.S. bank. Although the bank tried its best to maintain the account in its second attempt, it was suppressed by U.S. authorities. People familiar with the matter said the bank is Wells Fargo. Consensus’s MetaMask relies on additional backup accounts to maintain operations, and Lubin himself has also become a target.(CoinDesk)
