NextBank is building a 100% online bank focused on bitcoin users, companies, traders and forward‑looking entrepreneurs. The product plans include remote account opening in most cases, support for international debit cards, and a regulatory structure oriented around a Vanuatu registration to avoid common crypto banking roadblocks. The company is led by founder Dimitry Voloshinskiy and Celine Neves, who is described as a former CEO at a Vanuatu‑registered bank. The team says it has raised $950,000 so far from personal funds and angel investors and hopes to attract additional capital. The group expects to launch its first products in 2016. TechCrunch updated the piece to report concerns that the project may be a scam; NextBank responded on Reddit and issued legal threats.
