[2015-09-15] CD: BNP Paribas Fortis Denies Bitcoin Vault Project

[tyz]

BNP Paribas Fortis has denied it is exploring the idea of entering the bitcoin space as a digital vault provider. A spokesperson for the international Belgium-based bank – a subsidiary of BNP Paribas – told CoinDesk the company was not planning to allow its customers to store bitcoin as they would any other asset.

I received the same information through the same mailing group. The source of this information clearly stated this project has NOTHING to do with BNP Paribas Fortis.

That doesn't mean it ahs nothing to do with banks though, but CoinDesk needs to get their facts straight.
