Just to balance the potential bullishness, let's not forget that this doesn't automatically mean that they're planning on accepting bitcoin buying/selling. There's a chance that they're looking for some crypto chainalysis expert or something. Or the fact that "digital currency" doesn't automatically mean cryptocurrency.
It will be big news if the banks in the United Kingdom start accepting Bitcoin transactions through banks because it will help with adoption. The more banks that are hiring cryptocurrency experts the more chance we have for adoption because they have seen that they will require cryptocurrency experts. I do not think this is bad news and atm with the info we have I do not think it will create too many waves in the market but it is definitely something positive.
