Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear?

[bitcoin-shark]

i realy hope it can banks MUST disappear they eat on our earning very high commision

[satdas]

to me  bank will do work with bitcoin in combination. and it will be good both for bitcoin and banks, to me banks will accept bitcoin and then people will use banks for transaction of bitcoin . and will receive good income from bicoin.

[coin_gambler]

I am not sure it can happen, better not to think about it and make more and more money with bitcoin everyday till it's works, cause someday it's MAYBE can dissaper.

of course it can, in my opinion it is the only question in time when we will see it happening, it would be really great to be honest because it would give me some decent money

i hope that the bitcoin price might be growing but anything is possible so dont put too much hopes into it

It seems that experts say that Bitcoin 'Here to Stay,' But Banks Could Disappear.


"TheStreet: How do you think FinTech will impact the way banks operate?

Frank Schwab: Banks either react on, or they will disappear. Anyway, the consolidation of the banking industry accelerates as the behaviour of people changes. Some banks will benefit from [FinTech], some will be pushed to the back end, and some will disappear."

What's your read on that?

I think it's impossible to make bank disappear, bitcoin just another alternative payment and we still need a bank. it's just my opinion

That's right I giving any example for that if our in the world of war and I think a lot of people will leaving from bitcoin because bitcoin is not usefulness in the urgent situation without internet.

And during the war why did you think the banks will not going to be collapse? With bitcoin you can save your moneg during the war for the security and could just took it when the war just ends,in war,food is the most important things not money

Are you sure if after the war the internet is will already exist? i think a lot of people will never thinking about that because for saving their is too difficult with the chaos in every where. especially think for the internet and the main currency will saving us just a gold.

People lose more money every year stored in their bank accounts and atms as compared to Bitcoins, the only bitcoins that get stolen are because of either carelessness in handing private keys or investing in scams.

i think no people lost his money in bank, it's just lower interest if we compared with bitcoin interest (rising price).
but i think not all people who stored his money at bitcoin get interest, growing his money, some people who buying bitcoin in $700 and hold it, now lose arround 20% of his money.

That is correct putting all your money in bitcoin wallet is like putting your life in risk, just put only portion of your money and save other money in the bank for security purposes, and i do not ever think that bank will disappear because of bitcoin that is will never happen.

Agree that we do not need to invest most of our money in bitcoin many things possible to happen that is why we need to save a lot in bank because bank has a insurance what ever bad happen in your money inside the bank there are insurance that will return back your money.

yeah but things can be changed in future. even I am pretty much sure things will get changed in future 100%..
bitcoin price dropped little bit but it will raise again and everyone who invested when the price was 700$ they will also get profit. this is the game of patience. anyone one who have strongest well power well be in more benefit..

and banks won't give this amazing feature, but there is no chance that bitcoin can disappear banks. banks will remain.

Yeah bank is going to remain because the people really needs bank for the security of their money. And mostly, people who have millions of bucks are going to lend their money to the bank for the bank is able to use that money for investment and the bank is going to do the bank so that your money is going to grow easily.

bitcoin is still a young e - currency  and has not got to that level of displacing a bank.
Probably in the next generation it's very much possible as merchants take the step of accepting bitcoin payments then we headed in the right direction ☆

banks are just  definitely as a storage on our money and it doesnt connected  wit bitcoin and  it wont be possible tha bitcoin could make bank disappear since  they dont really have connection at all. Yes, banks  is  more secure on your fiat money it would  still grow your money there but  it not as big  as you expected  in per annum basis.

there are some banks going bankrupt so i believe there are a lot of people who lose their money though we cannot do anything about it

That might be true in some underdeveloped countries. But American and European governments provide depositor insurance for banks. If banks in those countries go bankrupt, the depositor insurance reimburses depositors up to a certain amount. In the U.S. the insurance is for up to $250,000 per depositor per bank. That means if you have accounts at 10 U.S. banks, you can be insured for up to $2.5 million.

Insured U.S. bank accounts can include individual retirement accounts. Those bank accounts allow the depositor to invest in the stock market. Banks also reimburse their customers if their accounts are hacked. Bank cards protect customers who make purchases by allowing chargebacks.

By comparison, bitcoin provides no insurance and no chargebacks. Many people lose their bitcoins because of problems with their wallets. The latest big loss was the Bitfinix fiasco. Bitcoin losses happen regularly.

In American and European countries, people don't lose money in their bank accounts. It's delusional to think risky bitcoin will replace banks. The extreme majority of people aren't that naive to trust bitcoin instead of banks.

After the war, one of the things that will be  immediately taken care of aside from basic need is the communication.  It is needed and internet is  one of it.  I am very sure that it will still exist.  The mere fact that internet was made available, it will be easy to reestablish since basic knowledge about it is already founded.

Yes it will be. We already knew how to start it. It will just need the necessities to create one again. But that will take time. I guess it will be more important to live than to communicate. Saving their own lives first and security before everything.

The conclusion will be banks have already establoshed their trust on their customers. The fact that they havr been there for a lot of years makes it impossible to wreck it. They took well of their accounts and gave some features that will let them see that they can really trust them. Just like those insurances.

It would be impossible though that we can only have bitcoins use in all of our investment and commercial transactions. Thus, bank will still be needed and is seems impossible to stop its services because of bitcoins. Bitcoins and banks can go hand in hand though.

True, banks have already established their pace for Long years and as you can see that there are many kinds of banks existed which means that many people already trust to banks to handle their funds and it's more secure than keeping your money on yourself. Banks are just like a warehouse or storage which usually a place where our money have been kept.

thats true because no one knows how the price is going to turn out to be, nearly everything is possible to be honest so i dont risk too much
