Question to the regular American about operation chokepoint: how much are you measurably constrained buying your bitcoin?

I just saw a an item on Kitco news about operation chokepoint and I was wondering how much are (you) Americans really constrained buying your bitcoin?

Many US banks limit the amount of money you can transfer to an exchange, but if that's like $ 2k or $ 5k a month, that's still ok for the average American (I assume). Or if your bank totally forbids it, how quickly can you find another, more crypto-friendly bank and be back to your dca-schedule without missing a beat? Has anyone actually been totally unable to buy bitcoin?

*If my English is a bit clumsy, it's not my first language.

Edit: Apparently the fud about this got to me a bit, but I'm happy that almost nobody has problems buying bitcoin.

I write this primarily in response to the TechSpot article from yesterday ( r/technology mods told me they only allow “ mainstream articles with editorial oversight and fact-checking ” so I'm sharing this here). But I’d also like to take this opportunity to write about Bitcoin more broadly as someone who has been following it for more than a decade and I’ll try to do so without complicating the conversation for anyone unfamiliar with Bitcoin. The TechSpot article cites a non-peer-reviewed National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) working paper from Igor Makarov and Antoinette Schoar. NBER claims to be non-partisan but it is a private NPO funded by the likes of Bill Gates foundation . The chairman of NBER, Karen Horn, is a former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and Head of Int...
