Well banks are going to use private Blockchain technologies to transfer between banks and also central banks. It's going to be cheaper than the existing services like Swift. <Pro> The <con> will be that they will not be using our Bitcoin Blockchain, but their own privately developed Blockchain Rip off.

Other uses like Smart contracts will possibly disrupt some other services too.
