Thinking that this news could bring BTC to a new real rally is wishful thinking IMHO.
still, it casts bitcoin in a positive light as an alternative to the banks that failed the stress test imo

from the 25 banks you can substract 13, because they managed to increase their base capital today.
so we are talking about a possible lost of ~10 billion € right now

Are government reports like this truly indicative of anything? Surely a significant shortfall was expected anyway?

Bank run, go !

Insiders already shorted those banks that failed this test. That's the real way to profit from this news.
Bitcoin is totally irrelevant here.

There wasn't even bad news. About 12 banks that I've never heard of in my life (mind you, I am by experience U.S.-centric) have capital shortfalls that they need to patch in the coming weeks, 13 already have. Moreover, the total capital shortfall is less than it has been in previous years. Finally, as some have noted, they tested a larger number of banks this go around than in 2011. Ergo, this is largely a non-event. Not really good news, but certainly not devastating news like the headline might lead you to believe.
Regardless, who would try to remedy the risk of a bank run by buying into something that is presently being subjected to the equivalent of a bank run. These disney dollars are dead.

Do the banks that fail the review get bailed out by governments again? If that's the case then will the governments start printing more money and will that affect bitcoin's price.

One-hundred-and-five banks are shown passing the review, according to the draft statement. Of the lenders that failed, about 10 will still face capital shortfalls they need to plug, according to a person with knowledge of the matter, who asked not to be identified because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly. That figure is likely to change as talks continue before the final results are published Oct. 26, said the person.

You'll get a $30 bounce on cultists speculating that everybody looking to avoid the risk of a bank run will turn to the "safety" of Bitcoin. Then, everybody and their f---ing mother will take out a short to dump on that idea because the Bitcoin exchanges (not necessarily Bitcoin itself, but definitely the exchanges) are all bucket shops. The price will then go to about $251... then it will bounce back to about $330, then down to $200, then up again but less to about 250 to 260... then people really just give up absent some blast out of the blue.
A commodity that only goes down, in my mind, is as useful for my purposes as one that only goes up. I'm rather enjoying this, now. I stopped listening to everybody, assume the worst (with allowances for the occasional bounce back), and am making a hobby of counting my money. I should have held more firm with my pessimism months ago.

I would suggest that any adverse news regarding European Banks will have an inverse effect to bitcoin.
