It is not the banks responsibility. See my other comments.

However, this is an incredible show of incompetence. It is easy to make banks responsible of money laundering. Also easy to make them non-responsible of inappropriately holding customers funds.

That's an incomplete solution. Cash and Bitcoin are still subject to money laundering regulations. You just reduce the number of instances where they are applied, but you can't completely avoid them

That was a rather sarcastic comment. As cash is not practical (and can be faced with suspicion) and bitcoin is very speculative.
