Simple Bank

Has anyone seen this?  https://www.simple.com/    Seems like a bitcoin feature might be a decent fit for a simple new technological bank...

"While your money is FDIC-insured and held with our bank partner, we provide the tools and customer support you need to manage, "

Seems like all they are is a better banking software / money manager. They are not a bank

I so look forward to talking to "Peggy" when I need support services.*

It would be nice to know what their official stance is on Bitcoin.

I use Simple as my primary banking system linking with my coinbase account, I've been using it for quite some time and haven't had any issues. While I don't know their personal stance, I would imagine they would be open to it. Their customer service is amazing.

Well, this is actually a pretty smart idea. I mean, they clearly did simplify banking. If nothing else, its a good example of what Bitcoin services should try and get in the near future.

-> Card/Phone App for EASY use at physical stores (Like Visa)
-> ATMs in easily accessible locations.
-> A safe online web-wallet (WITH client-side encryption) that doesn't include gigantic strings of numbers like 2b7419b719e33a63b55d61a8f08177da55d544adf748d39a9f6f126de4c06103 on the homepage like blockchain.info, preferably integrated with the above 2 features.
