Mullvad will no longer be able to accept DKK from its customers (mullvad.net)

Danish banks have implemented significant restrictions on how Danish kroner (DKK) used outside Denmark can be repatriated back into Denmark.

Due to these circumstances, which are unfortunately beyond Mullvad’s control, Mullvad will no longer be able to accept DKK from its customers. We will continue to credit DKK received until the end of the month, but considering postal delays, it is best to stop sending it immediately.

Denmark not being part of the eurozone despite its central location is extremely funny to me. Like some monetary San Marino.

It's not really that central, every single eurozone country is south of Denmark. Denmark is only at the periphery of the eurozone.

Well, you have Finland in the north-east, Ireland in the north-west, and every land border faces a Euro-zone country. Few other countries can claim the latter.

Canada is not a Euro-zone country.

And also, Ireland is south of Denmark.

"Every land border"...There is only one...

Edit: and looking at a map, actually several countries have "every land border" to eurozone countries. Portugal, Spain, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg all fit that one, several with multiple land borders even. That's 30% of the eurozone countries.

Denmark does in fact have a very small land border with Canada - this happened quite recently and is pretty funny. So it's actually 2! 😄

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

That true...so it doesn't even share every land border with the eurozone! 😅

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Some of those probably have some tiny overseas territory for which that is not true.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

overseas territories would probably be island states, so they're unlikely to have a land border to any country at all. But sure, maybe there is some. But then the Danish/Canadian border would count too, making it untrue for Denmark as well.

Spain has land borders with 3 non-EU countries...
