I still see many people being puzzled by BTC, saying it's a bubble, that it's going to crash, etc...
Taking advantage of the huge price rise, I think some early believers should team and buy an existing bank. Not Barclays, nor JP Morgan of course, but there are small banks out there. Imagine a bank owned by bitcoiners, for bitcoiners. It would become an exchange, and it would be the best exchange in the world with the full ability to make Swift and SEPA transfers without the need to use the service of a third party.
That is a great idea but somebody must be willing to pursue this kind of service. Somebody should step up and it must be made by an influential person. Having an influential person creating/buying a bank for Cryptocurrencies or specifically Bitcoin would be a great way to promote its credibility. It can also boost the values of different Cryptocurrencies because it is now being presented physically in the real world.
