Yes maybe for a small amount. It depends on the details and what kind of economy do we live in when the banks are doing this. Do we still have same gov insurances in place etc?

No,i wouldn`t open a btc account in a bank.I don`t need such service. Bitcoin debit and credit cards?There aren`t many merchants who accept bitcoin as a payment method so btc debit and credit cards will be useless.

as far as i know,people are trying to get away from banks by using bitcoin,and always being proud of its decentralized system,and as main post stated by OP and if that really does happen in the future,then why we use bitcoin if the purpose of using it is to get away from banks?
even though if does allow you to open a bitcoin account it will make people easier to buy bitcoin or exchanging it

No, I wouldn't because they have limits that you can't get over them ( you have to say and prove from where and from whom did you get the money if your account has $5.000 and your salary is $700 per month). You can't be sure for your money because in many countries there are capital controls. Also you are not anonymous, that's very important to me.

Definitely would love to. This would be a very good idea. I would prefer having Bitcoin with my banks and also have them issue me, a Bitcoin atm so could use it anywhere and everywhere. Secondly it would help me be less worried about the security as it will be the banks headache. Though it's way long before we it really comes but then never say never, times are changing so let's hope this becomes a reality soon.

Also no for me, cause it will become centralized and I will compromise again to the banks rules and regulations. If btc account in banks actually happened , I will not be surprised if every transactions has a fee or there will be some monthly fee or something just like in some bitcoin debit cards.
I can just buy a cheap laptop for the sole purpose of storing my bitcoins and I will have a full control of my coins

Even without the support of banking already users have got the chance to use bitcoin as a form of investment, currency and for various transaction needs. As wallet continue to act as one's own wallet there is no need of creating a bitcoin account through other networks.

There are so many threads about "Bitcoin banks" lately, I can't understand why people are so obsessed with them. Anyway, I answered no, I don't need a bank account and one of the many reasons that I use Bitcoin is that I dislike them a lot they have nothing to offer but limitations and trouble, I really hope one day we'll totally get rid of them.

I would really say NO and most people voted the same option. Having a bitcoin account on your local bank is just useless though and would really takes time to be implemented by the government hence if they decide to adopt bitcoin on the form of banks you are no longer free regarding on your bitcoins because for sure you would imposed with taxes especially if you do hold huge amounts of bitcoin. Whats the purpose of wallets out there? People would definitely choose up those traditional ways because they love to have full control on their money.

banks will not accepting bitcoin because they do not have fully control for bitcoin funds and this things has been a lot of debate in this forum or out there but if banks accepting bitcoin doesn't mean will good too for bitcoiners because one of the main reason i choose bitcoin rather than bank is anonymity so i won't let banks took it from me that's why i would not open bitcoin account through bank even banks will offering those feature but i won't interested to do so

100% NO, in fact i think this is very dumb idea and exact opposite of bitcoin. Also, according to my vote ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1652815.0), 64.5% of bitcoiner in here also disagree with it. Personally, i think people who agree with this kind of idea must be don't care about bitcoin, only seek profit or just hate bitcoin. The poll results would be definitely expected and majority will choose no because we love bitcoins the way it is as of now therefore if its being putted to a bank it means anonymity feature would be gone and its already being controlled by government which means they can already impose tax on you. I love bitcoin as of now and that cant be change because bitcoin is decentralized and no one could able to control it.

Definitely a no for me. I don't care whatever entity is offering a way to store my coins with a certain reward as return, I will at all times avoid it. I am in Bitcoin because I like the feature that it offers me to keep my money outside the banking and governmental system. But I am sure that there will be plenty of noobs willing to open such an account at a bank just for the reason that it generates them a certain interest rate.

So the bank will hold your BTC? Its a scary situation. you'd rather keep it on your hard wallet after all if bitcoin's value grow, its all yours. Banks can't see it and wouldn't have to be so nosey about documents.

I agree,in your hard wallet you can do what you want,transfer anywhere etc. I mean you have a freedom with your bitcoin without thinking any compromised. I know many will opposed it.

Take away from anonymity, is it even possible to do? If it is, then isn't it mean that the customer doesn't have to give any personal data for the Bank? So will it be possible to do? Even tho if it actually could happen, then it won't be suitable for Bitcoin, because Bitcoin supposed to be decentralized. And with this Bank, it will just mess up the entire purpose of it.

I opened a BTC account on my computer, no need to have a 3rd party hold my stuff when I am capable of doing so just fine. There are already BTC banks out there per se with web wallets, they just don't give loans.

i would consider it only if they offer me a good annual profit rate on my coins. if you think about it, your local bank is 10 times better than using coinbase and services like that!

Yes I would, if it's for free or I can gain of it. It could be useful if I ever want to sell Bitcoin. If I ever need the service and it worth it, I will use it, if I don't .. it'll be there just in case. Nobody stops me to have other accounts and wallets spread over.

Why would I want a bank to hold my funds for me when in bitcoin, I already am my own bank? Also, why would I trust such entity to hold my funds knowing that they might use the said funds to oppress other people? Simply put, no, even if they impose enticing features for btc account holders.

this is so tempting especially with all the perks. but at the same time it means losing control over my bitcoins (private keys) and giving it up to a bank. i guess in the end i may do it because right now we are all doing it with our cash that we put in banks and use these perks so why not do it with bitcoin too. of course i would keep some in my own control.
