Hi all,

I was just reading this article about LHV bank building an app using blockchain technology which "enables users to send and receive euros instantly and free of charge".

If banks start to do this then doesn't it mean that there is less of a reason for bitcoin?  I thought that one of the main reasons why bitcoin will take off in the future is that it reduces costs for people.

As an investor in bitcoin, is this kind of development worrying?

They cant use bit coin block chain if Bitcoin dont exist. This is adoption. Adopton is not only that you go buy Kabab with bitcoins. To do that you dont realy need Bitcoin. Bitcoin gives you much more.

Yes this is future of Bitcoin. People will not even know they are using Bitcoin. but they will daily.
Now we mainly get lost explaining people what Bitcoin is. That is just a waste of time. People are not interested how and out of what their car was made. They are just interested how fast and comfortable they will travel from home to their job with it.
