Bitcoin Bank?

Oxymoron.

You're in a strange position to be calling out Bitcoin's antitheses.

How about this one, oxymoron: Bitcoin with user changeable consensus rules

I wonder how long before a crypto-communist fork starts redistributing your money and inflating the money supply?

You're not a Bitcoin supporter, so don't stand up up for people who can stand up for themselves just fine without you, Burt

With all due respect, Carlton ...

And?

Burt's still supporting something that is dangerously adverse to Bitcoin's principles. I don't care about other mistakes he's made in the past that only affected him. Anyone who donated Burt money in the past should be feeling like total idiots.

The United States Government used the Patriot Act to target my husband, spy on my family for at least 18 months, raid our house and office using sealed search warrants, seize our personal and our corporation's property, ruin our thirty year old business, and arrest my husband under a sealed arrest warrant and put him in solitary confinement to give the federal agents more time to find more financial assets (Bitcoins) to seize. The sole federal charge? A paperwork charge -- operating an unlicensed money transmittal business. It's a spurious charge. Burt was investing in Bitcoins, buying and selling only for himself; he didn't need a business license for personal investments.

What the heck did I do to get your panties in a bundle? I think Bitcoin "banks" are unnecessary. My personal opinion. That is all.

A dedicated Bitcoin bank is hilarious. I have 3 dedicated Bitcoin banks sitting in my living room called wallets.

A more appropriate term would be dedicated Bitcoin exchange.

I totally agree. If you can't borrow bitcoins and if you can't deposit bitcoins (for interest), it is not a bank.
I hope they don't get into trouble for using the term bank.... Banks are regulated institutions where depositors are protected.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

This article is not even describing a banking institution. This is a place with bitcoin ATM's and probably a help desk to explain how it all works and the other basics. A bank holds your money for you and it participates in the transactions. This is not a bank, there are many bitcoins centers around the world and they don't call themselves banks. This article is a waste of time.

I wonder how much they got paid to write this article like that. Either way, let them call it whatever they want. It doesn't change anything as they are just a business providing a service that may turn out to be helpful for certain people. That's what I consider to be the most important thing. The name doesn't matter here. I look at what it can do for people and how it may help to draw more users towards Bitcoin. Everything helps.

Its more likely an exchange rather than bank to me. Because they allow buy and sell if bitcoin. It doesnt make sense. Bitcoin bank? We have already wallets where we can store our bitcoins. Bitcoin shouldn't be on banks. Its not the purpose of bitcoin. This article is senseless. "World's first dedicated bitcoin bank". 👈😄

If I create myself a service where people can buy and sell Bitcoins easily, purchase or hire some Bitcoin ATM's, open up a nice office, I will probably be the second "dedicated" Bitcoin bank. Low value article without anything that we didn't know already... It's an obvious click-bait article just to bump up their ad revenue.

World’s First Dedicated Bitcoin Bank Opens In Vienna

A dedicated bitcoin bank, possibly the world’s first, has opened on Mariahilfer Strasse in downtown Vienna, Austria, according to The Local, an English-language Austrian news site. The bank is owned by a Berlin-based blockchain startup, Bit Trust Services, and it is named Bitcoin-Bank. The bank is designed to make buying and selling bitcoin easier and safer than other in-person options.
