Man that's a long ass interview. I'm gonna save it for my dinner time.
I don't have the attention span to watch an interview like that, so I'm going to skip it altogether.
I don't think retail banking will die. It will just get a new platform.
Retail banking likely won't die in any of our lifetimes. Think about how many banks there are just in the United States. Every single town usually has several of them, and the banks have so much capital invested in them and in their various businesses to be put out of business by a technology that so far has yet to make a major impact--not in the banking system and not in the average person's life. I know that a lot of hardcore bitcoiners want this to happen, but the fact is that it hasn't happened yet and doesn't look like it's going to. It would probably take a financial crisis that made all fiat money worthless for cryptocurrency to take over.
I do not see that Libra can jeopardize retail banks if it ever becomes a reality, banks are too strong and they are too deeply associated with politics who make laws, and banks can pay to keep the laws on their side.
Libra? I don't think so, nor do I think Facebook is looking to take on the banking system--and if they try to, the regulators will put a stop to that without hesitation. I'm not really sure what FB is trying to do with Libra, but I'm assuming it has more to do with creating a payment system for their customers than eliminating the banking system.
I can tell you now, Libra will be a dead born baby.
That could well be true. It does look like the government regulators are giving them a very hard time about it.
