In November 2019︁ this was no longer true. I went to multiple branches of WF, TD, BoA, Chase,︂ Santander and Citi and none would open an account for an NRA without a permanent︃ US address. In the cases of Santander and Citi I even had accounts in my︄ home country already and bought documentation with me.
Personal bank account opening in US

Interesting. I must be doing something wrong. I am from the UK and only have a virtual mailbox in the US. No friends and family address I can use unfortunately.
Unfortunately I didn’t have enough time when I went to Miami.. planning to go maybe this year or maybe January ‘23. But as I mentioned, I spoke with a RM of citigold package and she told me that just needed to visit a branch and I would get a personal account. Citigold allows to open remotely from 200k
Can you please tell more on Citigold remote account opening?

It completely depends on what you need the accout for and who you are. With some “1st world” passport and intention to use the account for paying your bills when you are in the U.S., you can be accomodated probably in every reasonable bank in probably any state. If you possess really an exotic passport and have an intention to pay from your account for pornsites membership, go to Miami, FL and walk bank after bank, branch after︀ branch until some onboards you 😉
As explained elsewhere, Bank of America staff has some leeway. They may ask for an address proof but can also waive it. I recommend having at least something in you hands. Even if it is a ATT prepaid receipt.

. Yes european
As address proof I gave them my virtual office lease agreement. You can also get some cheap insurance or cheap internet or phone bill and that should do, they don't care much
ITIN was needed

Yes, true. And generally, @Piano, unless you share your citizenship, current residence (less important) and what is the intended purpose of having an account, you cannot expect much founded/tailored answers...
BTW, note that @Piano wants to open a personal account, not a business one; and this can︀ (need not) be a different game.

Personal account BofA is possible without ITIN. Some address pdf on the computer definitely helps.
