Good news from Mt Pelerin:

We are excited to announce that the long-awaited personal IBANs are now available to all our users!

With this new feature, you can transform your self-custodial wallet into something more: a universal account that seamlessly sends and receives money across both blockchain and traditional banking networks.

It will allow you to:

  • Receive bank transfers from anyone, directly converted in crypto in your wallet.
  • Send bank transfers to anyone, using crypto from your wallet.

This evolution is a major step toward making self-custody more convenient and integrated into everyday life.

Let's dive in! 👇

I applied for a EUR IBAN and I received the details after a few seconds.

BIC/SWIFT:
YAPECHZ2
Bank address:

Yapeal AG
Max-Hoegger street 6
8048 Zurich
Switzerland
 
Good stuff, am a big fan of Mt Pelerin. Pretty sure I was the first to post about them on OCT two or so years ago, glad it is still working for you 😀

Really liking this so far. This company actually makes it possible to unbank yourself entirely (its their slogan after all). They basically onboard any country except for the heavily sanctioned ones.

Their app says they're developing a card. Would be a nice addition

Going to try to put this under my company's name and see if this works. Noticed it's possible as well, but requires a 10 min. videocall. If that's possible that means I could move anywhere and not worry about banking. Hoping they're reliable enough for larger sums though, we'll see. They seem to be.

Brief update:

- My (personal) account was verified within a few hours (on a Sunday)
- I did some test transactions up to 25k. From a personal account and company account. Instantly credited. Both coming from brick and mortar + EMIs. It seem the EMIs don't give you a headache as they don't recognize the IBAN is Mt. Pelerin (it's under your own name after all).

- I emailed them with a question, quick response.

Now of course the real test comes from being a client for some months/years but I think it's a very solid company which is probably ran by some crypto fanatics themselves.

Would I dare to try transfer higher amounts? I don't know to be honest. I think 100k+ is the real test with most companies. I might try in the future. I'm holding as much BTC as I can now, which is always a good idea regardless, until the next bull market.
 
I've tested a number of swaps, and they're quite fast. Transactions also work well, but there are some areas for improvement:

- It seems like every transaction has to be manually approved by their office. Sometimes I receive confirmation within an hour, but on the other hand, I've been waiting two days for confirmation of a SEPA transaction now for example.

- You can't enter a recipient when making a transfer. It's transferred to whatever account in your name... Pretty strange. So you're sending it to another person but it uses your name. That has worked so far but this is anything but ideal for larger amounts and B2B transactions. I'm sure it's a matter of time before a transaction gets rejected that way. And then good luck proving this wasn't a mistake.
