Kvqixfrezvcc Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago I’ve noticed my credit card Bitcoin purchases sometimes get randomly declined during big news events. Is this just my bank being difficult, or is there a broader pattern here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dktixfrezvcc Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago Great observation! I found this deep dive on the impact of global events on Bitcoin purchases with credit cards that explains exactly what’s happening https://www.talkandroid.com/501040-the-impact-of-global-events-on-bitcoin-purchases-with-credit-cards/ . During major market volatility or geopolitical crises, banks often tighten risk controls—flagging crypto purchases as “high risk” due to chargeback concerns. The article shows how events like Fed announcements or regulatory news can trigger these temporary blocks across multiple financial institutions simultaneously. What helped me was their advice to notify your bank in advance during turbulent periods or use debit auth instead of credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
