I'm imagining a future where they is indeed a frenzy over coins, but not our coins. You see people rushing to buy FiatCoin and BOAcoin in their TD Ameritrade account. Meanwhile you are extremely frustrated and going 'omg you idiot that isn't a real coin. that isnt bitcoin. that isnt decentralized. why arent you on our illegal exchange trading real coins?
? havent you ever been in the crypto community or read the whitepaper or know what pki is? [no]'. But all of this just goes completely over their head and they are buying whatever is trending, as always.

I see this as well. Specifically with regards to the blockchain. Each bank (and its customer base) would conduct all transactions in said banks coin. These transactions would be privately validated through said bank and then logged to the public blockchain. As transaction occur between banks (and their customers), this process would be repeated. More transactions = higher fees = more money made by the bank from customers and from other banks it does business with. This would theoretically increase the coin price of the bank with the highest volumes as compared to other banks. Of course all of this could be speculated on in a futures market or an actual regulated coin market much like present day stocks. Banks get around the problem of centralized trust (as they privately assume some risk by validating their own transactions offline with their coin or in-house network) and publicly confirm those private transactions through the public blockchain ledger.
