Another news that really put blockchain in the next levels. But then again, ironic to see that banks keeps on attacking bitcoin but they embraced the technology that powered it. I'm pretty sure that they are really afraid of crypto because of its disruptive nature, but its like a double sword. They learn to loved the technology because it will give them a lot of advantage but hate bitcoin because it might potentially affect their future earnings.
