This is the first step for the bank to use Bitcoin in the system. Gradually, Bitcoin will take on more important roles.
Glad to here there's some banks who accept bitcoin and believe in it. Now days bank are totally refused the bitcoin and cryptocurrency due to highly volatile.
Not sure this would have been something we would not get to see eventually anyway, as someone rightly said, we are definitely going to see some revolution pertaining money and spending in the long run and that will be the fact that cryptocurrency whether we like it or not, will end up taking the spot light in the financial sphere.
In that process, as time goes on, even banks will find a need to want to make use of it and then see the benefit they can derive from it as well, like we are currently seeing German online banks doing same. High volatility is something that will not last forever, as we have seen reduction in volatility to some extent over the years and as adoption keeps increasing, volatility will definitely be subsiding.
