For crypto, the practical picture is simple: Anytime Capital accepts City National Bank debit cards, credit cards, ACH transfers and wire transfers, and City National Bank customers buy BTC, ETH, LTC, SOL, XRP, USDT, USDC and 38+ other assets with delivery to a wallet they control — then sell back for a wire or ACH to the same City National Bank account.
