It's beyond ridiculous that getting an e-residency won't help you open a bank account. And to make it worse, they want you to travel to Estonia IF they accept to open an account for you! What's the point of getting an e-residency then? Huge face palm.

Thank you for the interesting ideas! Does it mean that a company that sells apps on Google Play (Google requires an EE IBAN from a brick-and-mortar bank), and has no strong connections with Estonia, literally can't get an Estonian IBAN? Or do Estonian banks make exceptions in such cases? Can you please share some experience? Thank you!
