It seems that experts say that Bitcoin 'Here to Stay,' But Banks Could Disappear.

"TheStreet: How do you think FinTech will impact the way banks operate?

Frank Schwab: Banks either react on, or they will disappear. Anyway, the consolidation of the banking industry accelerates as the behaviour of people changes. Some banks will benefit from [FinTech], some will be pushed to the back end, and some will disappear."

What's your read on that?

Both have their own roles to play in the future.
I don't think bitcoin will make banks disappear because bitcoin has it own issues and limitations.
Bitcoin and banks both have their limitations and advantages, people are the ones to choose best for themselves.
