While it's all well and good banks being interested in integrating the blockchain technology into their existing currency system this doesn't help the Bitcoin community, if anything it goes against it as it will just be strengthening the current system.

tldr: banks are very excited that bitpay is working on a solution to apply "blockchain technology" to the way they do business.
In other words, this isn't related to Bitcoin but rather to blockchain technology. This shouldn't even be in this section.

I wonder if they would use the actual amount of btc to transfer customer funds or use a colored coin system?
They are talking about applying blockchain technology to the mainstream currencies, not using Bitcoin.

Bitpay has shifted its focus from letting businesses accept Bitcoin to getting people interested in Bitcoin in the first place. The company is doing this by building the infrastructure and tools to make Bitcoin more accessible. In the process, they've stumbled on a new market — big banks.
