I have been using circle app in the uk since release

I love Circle.  It's the easiest way to buy bitcoin for me, and I've tried several.  I'm not surprised when the banks express interest in cryptocurrency, though I think bitcoin's market cap is far too small and bitcoin itself is far too speculative for banks to take much of an interest.

Well finally banks showing off what they were trying to do on the last 7 years since bitcoin borned and shaked the world with its concept, lets see how good or bad it might be for bitcoin.

Barclays has some BTC track record. They were Mt Gox's UK bank and Intersango's. I think discovering that they were in the Bitcoin business came as a surprise to Barclays as they shut them down.

They've also been talking about doing stuff with Safello in terms of handling charitable donations. I've used Circle a few times now. It's miraculous compared to many UK services.

That said, Barclays is just providing the backbone for Circle to make its fiat payments.
