My local German bank reported „suspicious“ transactions after several trades on bisq. They never talked to me about the transactions instead they went straight to law enforcement. The system is fucked up.

Can confirm: German police will freeze bank accounts if they have questions about bisq trades. Two of my trades were flagged as linked to computer fraud, and I was required to provide a written witness statement. Interestingly, when I contacted my bank first, they explained the investigation and then re-enabled my account. Lesson learned: always keep multiple bank accounts/cards.
