Bitcoin reaches more popularity over time.   Banks start to feel the pressure.  Somehow banks develop a relationship with North American ISPs to start traffic shaping Bitcoin confirmation/mining/processing traffic.   Think this is possible?   That would put a dent in the Bitcoin network as far as transaction processing/confirmations go.  Thoughts?

Yes I understand that.  But what if the ISP uses traffic shaping to lag down the bitcoin mining network?

And that's why net neutrality is so important.
