  To open a cryptocurrency-friendly bank account as a non-US citizen, you will typically need to provide identification documents such as a passport or national ID card. Additionally, you may be required to provide proof of address, such as a utility bill or bank statement. Some banks may also request information about the source of your funds and the purpose of opening the account. It's important to note that each bank may have slightly different requirements, so it's best to check with the specific bank you are interested in.

  Opening a cryptocurrency-friendly bank account as a non-US citizen usually requires the same identification documents as any other bank account. This includes a valid passport or national ID card. However, some banks may have additional requirements, such as proof of address or a minimum deposit amount. It's also important to consider the bank's policies on cryptocurrency transactions and whether they have any restrictions or limitations in place.
