Notes / possible confusion

• Name overlap: “Bitbank” can refer to other unrelated entities (for example, a Luxembourg-based “Bitbank” site exists with a different domain and business description). This is distinct from Japan’s bitbank, Inc. operating bitbank.cc. (bitbank.lu)
• Impersonation warnings: Bitbank’s support site has published warnings about fake sites and phishing, and it lists official social accounts (including x.com/bitbank_inc). (support.bitbank.cc)
