What money are you talking about?

FDIC extends to U.S. banks that are part of the Federal Reserve Banking System.   FDIC is deposit insurance that reduces the risk of your banking institution going insolvent and you not having access to your "deposited" funds.

in other words, no... your bitcoins(btc) are not federally regulated, there fore they are not insured... but this could open up the doors to btc insurance companies... not a bad idea, nice work!
