Interesting they are talking about distributed blockchains. 94% of 'em.
I'm wondering what they consider to be 'distributed' tho. Maybe distributed amongst several branches of their banks?
They mention trying to remove bitcoin from it, so i'm guessing not very distributed, and permissioned.

You already gave the answer. It will be a distribution between several branches of their banks and that's it.
Centralized, controlled and far far away from being permissionless. Let them praise their "innovation".
