Those articles are being taken out of perspective a bit in my opinion, note that they read "credit cards". People see these articles and think banks are censoring peoples transactions.
I think this is more aimed to avoid people taking on debt to buy cryptocurrency, which is a very good thing imo. We all love bitcoin but we should at the same time be responsible adults. Look at how many lives got damaged by beeettkoonneeeccctt!! (sorry but you all know we gotta say it like that

I don't have nearly as much coin and token holdings as I would like to have, but I am fine with that because I only invest surplus money I have left from my last paycheck on payday. It will get there one day.
I think some banks will manage to move into a grey area and keep themselves relevant for financial services even after bitcoin takes over the world, the ones that are beginning to adopt around this space and innovate, that is. Their business models would of couse drastically change though. Others will die out though like the pests they are and I look forward to that.
