The clever way cryptocurrency exchanges are getting around Indian bank's stonewalling
According to Reuters, crypto trading platforms in India are still having a hard time opening accounts with financial institutions. This makes it more difficult for them to operate in the country.
Banks are still holding back from working together with crypto exchanges
Despite the fact that cryptocurrencies are not officially banned in India, banks are still avoiding cryptocurrency exchanges. It seems they have decided to do so because of the advice given by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).Back in March, the RBI said it would be taking a "calibrated position" on a cryptocurrency ban. India's Supreme Court lifted an earlier RBI rule that prevented banks from offering account services to crypto trading platforms.
While there is no ban in India to offer payment services to cryptocurrency exchanges, customer complaints have flooded all major Indian exchanges because their clients are unable to withdraw using mainstream payment methods.
Due to ongoing issues with traditional payment methods, partnering with payment processing companies is becoming a suitable stop-gap measure. This has allowed platforms that still want to offer cryptocurrency services to their customers to continue to do so.
There are already smaller payment methods in India that offer instant transfer services for exchanges. One of these services is the Mumbai-based payment processor, Airpay.
Airpay reportedly delivers its services to Coinswitch and Binance-owned WazirX. However, given India’s estimated 15 million cryptocurrency investors, such payment channels are not optimised to provide services on a large scale and can end up being insufficient.
Exchanges using these methods can face downtimes
To get a handle on the situation, major platforms like WazirX have to stop crypto/fiat trading on certain days, and only offer peer-to-peer (P2P) transactions. Some other exchanges are reportedly resorting to manual settlements for bank deposits and withdrawals. Others, such as Bitbns, have created their own basic payment processor that enables some essential transactions, as the systems do not require prior approval from the Reserve Bank of India, the central bank.Crypto exchange stakeholders state that relying on P2P channels and other alternative trading methods comes with a higher risk to the customer and can expose them to fraudulent activity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?
We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
