PNB looks into use of bitcoin!

[ThePogi]

Napaka gandang balita man kung ganon at unti unti ng umuusad at natatangap ang crypto currency dito sa pilipinas.malamang at susunod na ren ang ibang banko sa oras na ito ang masimulan na.sana pati ang mga malls ay tumangap na ren ng gantong klaseng payment para less hassle na ren sa ating mga pinoy na gumagamit ng external wallets.

[darkangelosme]

Sooner or later magiging in - demand na dito satin ang mga block chain specialist and developers. Ang iniisip ko lang eh kung anung block chain  technology ang gagamitin ng ating mga bank sector?

ETH?
EOS?
Waves?
Ripple?
Etc..

Or gagawa sila mismo ng sarili nilang blokchain. nakakatuwa at suportado ng BSP ang crypto currency. We are lucky. 

Naku sana sa bitcoin nalang sila tumutok dahil mas stronger ang foundation ni bitcoin compare sa mga alt coins... nakita din naman natin kung gaano ka expensive si bitcoin... kaya sa bitcoin nalang wala ng iba;) kung pwede;)

Hindi naman pepwede na sa isang digital currency lang tayo magfocus since napakaraming ibang digital currency na pwedeng ifocus. Siguro kung hindi bitcoin, it will be either Ethereum or maybe Waves or Ripple.
Pero kung hindi yun bitcoin, sigurado ETH yun since it is the major platform of many altcoins in circulation.

Tama hindi naman pwedeng sa bitcoin lang sila mag focus, napaka dami pang crypto ang nag exist, well maganda narin yan bilang pa unang hakbang sa pagtanggap ng mga banko sa digital assets or shall we say cryptocurrencies.

TOP official of the Philippine National Bank (PNB) vows to study bitcoin amid Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) accepting stance on cryptocurrencies. PNB chair Flor Gozon Tarriela said they are looking at bitcoin and blockchain technology very cautiously but stressed the bank is not into it yet. “PNB will closely study the disruptions going on in the financial sector. We want to know more about the trends. We want to be aware of what is happening. But as to our plans to venture, we are not into it yet,” said Tarriela, adding that they are in the process of studying its dynamics and its possible effects to the banking business. A bitcoin is a cryptocurrency and worldwide payment system. It is the first decentralized digital currency, as the system works without a central bank or single administrator. While it recognized the potential benefits of virtual currencies as it facilitate the movement of funds at a much faster, cheaper, and convenient way, the BSP is equally cautious of the potential risks including illicit activities such as money laundering and terrorist financing.

It has advised the public that they have to be conscious of the opaqueness of transactions involving bitcoins. To minimize risks, the BSP encouraged existing and prospective virtual currency users to deal only with BSP-registered virtual currency exchanges and maintain only a sufficient amount of virtual currency enough to address transaction requirements. BSP warned that virtual currency users should properly secure their virtual currency holdings and observe security tips to protect the confidentiality and integrity of personal information and transaction details. “The BSP still has to issue regulations on this virtual currencies. But, we, in the banking industry advocate the know-your-customer first,” said Tarriela. PNB’s thrust this year is to go digital. Tarriela said they have launched mobile banking apps to cater to the needs of the tech-savvy market. “The way to go, really, is digital,” she said, adding that this will also help them reach out to the unbanked population.

That's a great news! At least may mga bangko na dito sa atin ang kumukilala sa bitcoin.. Unti-unti lalago na yan at marami pang bangko ang tutulad sa kanila.. Magantay lang tayo sa mga susunod pa..

Wala naman akong nakikitang great news sa balita na yan... basahin ninyong mabuti, di ba pag-aaralan pa lang? Papaano kung marami ang di sumangayon. Tandaan ninyo na ang Bitcoin ay kalaban ng bangko dahil ito ay decentralized kung kaya it's banned in some countries like China.

Baka di ninyo nabasa...masakit ito, "The BSP still has to issue regulations on this virtual currencies." Kaya, maliwanag ire-regulate nila ang cryptocurrencies. Kaya, nasaan ang sinasabi ninyong great news!

[blackssmith]

[boss@laway]

malaki ang matutulong ng gantong trasaction sa PNB, dahil sa mga gumagamit ng bitcoin  sa pilipinas at sa iba pang bansa sa buong mundo lalo na yung mga kababayan naten na nagttrabaho sa ibang bansa, isang magandang idea pag napatupad sa PNB ang pag gamit ng bitcoin dahil marami silang matutulungan dahil sa mailis na proseso.

sa tingin ko mag kakaroon nga ng buwis ito kapag nagkaroon ng mga regulations sa bitcoin at iba pang cryptocurrencies pero kapalit naman nito ang security nating mga connected or nag iinvest sa cryptocurrencies. isipin nyo naman ang nangyareng scam dito sa atin. maiiwasan sana ang ganitong mga bagay kung merong mga regulations kahit papano dito sa atin sa pinas. sa ngayon nanonood ako ng balita at ang topic ay about sa scam na ito. napakahirap kasi lalong sumasama ang image ng bitcoin sa mata ng ibang tao. kung ayaw nating maban ang bitcoin dito sa ating bansa ito na ang better choice para sa atin, ang ma regulate ang bitcoin.

[yugyug]

Dati rati ang mga malalaking companies or mga financial institutions gaya ng banko ang kumukalaban sa bitcoin dahil sa kanilang paniniwala na ito ay isang uri ng scam. Pero sa tagal ng panahon maraming pagsubok ang napagdaanan ng bitcoin pero nanatili itong matatag ilang ulit mang bumagsak pero ito ay bumabangon parin. Ngayun at alam na nila ang halaga at ang pakinabang ito kaya't itoy tinanggap nilang muli dahil alam nila kung ano ang malaking epekto ng banko kung hindi sila mag-adapt ng bagong teknolohiya na ginagamit ng bitcoin tulad ng blockchain.

Noong 2009, Bitcoin lang ang nag-iisang cryptocurrency pero me mga nag-babalak noon pang 1998 na gumawa ng online currencies with ledgers secured by encryption, gaya ng B-Money and Bit Gold pero di natuloy.

Ang sinasabi mong SCAM (at lahat ng Bitcoin SCAM) wlang kinalaman ang Bitcoin sa mga yan. Kasi ang Bitcoin ay isang digital asset o cyptocurrency... A Peer to Peer Electronic Cash System that was created in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto. Transactions are made with no middle men – meaning, no banks!. Kaya ang Bitcoin ay decentralized at ang mga banko ay centralized

Kaya kung mag-kakaroon ng regulation mamawala na ung purpose kung bakit ginawa ang Bitcoin at ang mga nag-sulputang cryptos ngayon, ethereum, monero, litecoin, atbp. Maraming di papabor kung ito ay magkakaroon ng regulation... siguro mali ung thinking mo about regulation gaya ng sinasabi mo sa iyong comment sa itaas... di lang patungkol sa buwis ang regulation, malawak ang sakop nito. Kapag na-regulate na ang pag-gamit ng Bitcoin, mawawalan na ng gana ang lahat na gumamit nito dahil wala na ang PURPOSE kung bakit pinaghirapan itong gawin. At kapag dumating sa puntong ire-regulate ng lahat ng gobyerno sa buong mundo ang Bitcoin (and all cryptos) wala ng saysay para manatili pa tayo sa forum na ito...WALA NA TAYONG LAYA... SAKAL-SAKAL NA TAYO NG GOBYERNO DAHIL MAY BATAS KA NG DAPAT SUNDIN...BABAGAL ANG TRANSACTION...MAGKAKAROON NG GULO, RED TAPE AT KUNG ANO-ANO PA, at malamang na magsasara na itong forum dahil ginawa naman ito para sa Bitcoin... me mga posts pa nga si Satoshi Nakamoto dito.

may point ka nga naman kapatid sa iyong mga sinabi alam ko din poh na walang middle man ang bitcoin kaya ito ay decentralized. alam ko din poh na hindi lang patungkol sa buwis ang bitcoin. tanong ko lang poh e ano poh ba ang tinitukoy mong regulation na sasakal, mag papabagal,mag dudulot ng gulo at iba pa? bago lang din poh kasi ako kaya marami pa akong hindi alam.isa pa poh ano poh ba ang sinasabi nyong PURPOSE ng bitcoin na mawawala? ang nasa isip ko poh kasi na maregulate e hindi yung magkaroon ng middle man ang bitcoin dahil hindi poh talaga ito pwede kasi yun poh talaga ang bitcoin.ang nasa isip ko poh e atleast magkaroon ng security tayo sa pag iinvest dito.isa pa poh ang mabawasan din ang pag gamit sa bitcoin para sa mga hindi magagandang bagay tulad ng terorismo, droga at iba pa.yun lamang poh ang sa akin. please enlighten me.

how about bdo, being the "number one bank"?  this is good news about pnb, to think na parang traditional bank siya.  sana we also hear about other banks looking into the crypto potential for the philippine market. 

Naku wala akong tiwala sa BDO diba nga nasa coinsph yan tapos nawala na kung hindi ako nagkakamali. Dahil nga ang naging isyu ata niyan lahat ng clients nila na my malaking savings sa kanila na galing mula sa coinsph eh bigla nalang pinifreeze yung account nung my savings s bdo, diba mali naman ata yun, ang kakapal ng mga mukha ng mga my ari ng bdo bank hindi naman nila pera inaankin nila n kanila, katumbas nun ay isang pagnanakaw.

[janvic31]

Narinig ko na din to and I think na this would be a good thing for all of us. Sa tingin ko na tatagal pa talaga ang crypto sa pilipinas. At hindi lang tatagal siguro stay na to habang buhay. Sana, let's just cross our fingers for this one. And I am so happy na kilala na ang btc sa pilpinas talaga.

hindi ako updated tungol sa BSP kung kinikilala na ba nila ang bitcoin at hindi ituturing na illegal pero malaking tulong ito BSP upang mapatatag dito sa Pilipinas ang cryto currency at maraming pinoy ang matutulungan nito.

[ice18]

Parang nakikita ko na mas advance ang mga bangko kung gagamit sila ng blockchain technology kasi hindi magtatagal ito ang magiging sagot sa mga problemang kinakaharap hindi lang ng mga bangko kundiy ang mga investor dito para maging trasparent diba.

[Creepings]

Parang nakikita ko na mas advance ang mga bangko kung gagamit sila ng blockchain technology kasi hindi magtatagal ito ang magiging sagot sa mga problemang kinakaharap hindi lang ng mga bangko kundiy ang mga investor dito para maging trasparent diba.

Napakalaki talaga ng tulong ng block chain technology not only sa mga bangko pero sa iba pang mga bagay na dapat maging pribado tulad na lang ng ating pagboto sa mga eleksyon. Kung gagamit tayo ng Block chain sa paghahalal ng mga pinuno natin, napakalaki ng posibilidad na magiging malinis ang botohan at mawawala na ang mga dayaan.

That's a great news! At least may mga bangko na dito sa atin ang kumukilala sa bitcoin.. Unti-unti lalago na yan at marami pang bangko ang tutulad sa kanila.. Magantay lang tayo sa mga susunod pa..

dahil sa kinikilala na ng bango ang bitcoin ay mas tatag pa lalo at lalawak ang impluwensya ng bitcoin dito sa pilipinas dahil dun maraming pinoy ang matutulungan nito lalo na sa mga walang trabaho

[Chuokie]

I was also hoping if one feature of saving pass book on PNB is that you can directly send BTC on your PNB account and it will be automatically converted to Philippines peso according to the banks published rate of the day, it will be amazing... Don't you agree too?

[waytko07]

Napakagandang balita into. If PNB will accept digital coins like btc and will regulate by BSP, maraming Filipino ang sasali at magiinvest so it will raised the price in market. At ang mas nakakatuwa, matututo ang maraming na maging investor. Nice one..

[mikaeltomcruz12]

Magiging maganda ang sistema ng bitcoin kung sakaling my isang bangko ang susuporta sa bitcoin.SA ganung paraan isa pa yung makakatulung sa bitcoin para mas makilala pa ito at mas gumanda pa ang presyo nito.
