I consider myself REALLY optimistic about Bitcoin, but I think we are pretty far from Banks and Goverments actually buying BTC themselves.

Banks are not afraid of BTC because in it's current form it is an economic joke that will never actually perform the function of money in an economy.  And even if it DID, it dose nothing to address the root cause of Banking wealth, interest on debt.  A debt in BTC will still carry interest, so a BTC bank would function no different then a Dollar bank.  To undermine banking you need to eliminate urury and interest at it's source which is the hardness of money.  BTC was designed to be harder then real gold and if you know ANY economic history you know banks LOVED GOLD MONEY because it generates interest.  If BTC or something as hard as BTC were our money Banks would be enriched to a staggering degree, but you folks don't really care about that because in your hearts YOU lust to be the very banking class you claim to despise.

You realize that most people here love bitcoin only because they hate banks , right ? Cheesy

governments don't have to buy it, they take it by force for any reason they like. take silk road as example.

Which is why I wuv bitcoin so much. You were missing a key word in that quote above. The word is 'try'.
The government can have my bitcoins when they pry them from my cold dead hands solve the P=NP problem.

I think a lot of people here are overestimating bitcoin a LOT... It's still very far from being considered a serious currency. I'd be very surprised if banks invested in such a high risk currency as bitcoin.

Also, why would governments want to own bitcoins? It's nearly impossible to tax people as bitcoin is anonymous. I see bitcoin more like an easy to trade version of gold.

Well the FBI already got a head start on that....I cant remember how much they got after the seizure.  Maybe that will be the best way for governments to collect BTC.  Shutting down illegal websites and hijacking their wallets.  Modern robbery style!

Better still, freeze all the banking account for people that have any dealing with BTC and they now have both BTC and more fiat Smiley

Yeah, this is what they are doing... FBI is good business...

Banks are getting scared because they loose the power of creating money. This power is getting a lot of poeple going nuts and they won't accept loosing this power at all cost. You're being naive thinking otherwise. Make no mistakes, bitcoin will lead a war. Fortunatly bitcoin is much more powerful fundementally and will win in the long run.
