I think Banks are now worried that cryptocurrencies will affect their position. Now that more and more people are joining the cryptocurrency, the amount of money flowing into Banks will be reduced.

Well in the case of HSBC, it is because they got spanked by the US regulators, so right now they are not involved with anything that might remotely be risky.  They got so much bad press and bad fines from the US, that if we found that drug dealers were using chicken restaurants as a front, they may stop lending money anyone that has anything to do with chickens.For everyone else, as of 2015, banks are starting to fear bitcoin for the right reasons.  Big consulting firms like KPMG, Accenture, and Deloitte have started scaring the banks with stories of Kodak, Polaroid, and the record industry, that the banks are starting to be very, very worried that their business model is obsolete.

Banks should follow the new technologies.
Cryptocurrencies do not avoid Fiat but helps making new utilities to make payments and stake much more easy and secure.
Banks may have problems with decentralization and owning personal data of their custumers.
Many of them adopt the new tech in order to satisfy clients and invent new way of profit.

If you asked me exactly the same warning I would have done in relation to banks. They probably think that people forget how many banks died in 2008. It's all just competition in the Finance market. Banks have lost the clients, and the process continues.

Of course they are, cryptocurrencies basically rob them their source of money.

In case cryptocurrencies get globally adopted banks will lose their mighty position as moneycontroller

No. I think they will more treat it as a friend because cryptocurrency will help them to control producing traditional money if many people will use and patronize it.
By this, it will help them to reduce the increase of having debt in the World Bank.

Yes the should fear cause crypto currencies or digital currencies that we know of don't need banks, we can save them without their help. And it evolves to break the back bone of bank which is a centralized mone managment system. But btc and other cryptos decntralize system it works independently. Like know one can trace it down who is having how much money is being protected in a certain way like there is no way. And investments on bank will go low affirmatively as people are investing money in cryptos somw may be taking lone and investing in btc and enjoying the profit. Its a threat for bank for sure.so fears are expected .

Of course, as we know that the current cryptocurrency marketcap continues to increase significantly so that it makes banks feel threatened, especially if the government legalizes cryptocurrency can make banks disappear.

I think there is nothing to be afraid. Usually people resist to change. Since bitcoin is a new form of currency based on block chain technology, many banks have no clear idea about it and condiser it as their competitor. Therefore they are afraid of it.

I do not think so, bitcoin is virtual currency, it is an anonymous. Banks do not want the people of their country to use a virtual currency without a clear and uncertain investment.

I think this kind of thing is just an attraction .. many banks in different countries are issuing such appeal but the development of digital money remains fast ...
so do not think too much about it, do the thing you want to do ... do not let the problem get in your way

I think yes, Banks are concerned that the development of cryptocurrency will affect the interests of Banks. If people choose to invest their money in cryptographic currencies, the amount of money flowing into the Banks will be less, damaging the Banks' interests.

For some reason, yes, as we all know bitcoin has all the potential of replacing banks since it makes life more convenient leading to the attraction of more people on it. Maybe somewhere in the future, it would dominate banks making it to the top and being more popular than ever. For now, bitcoin and banks has something to do with each other that's why they are in good terms and they benefit on each other.
Currently, as far as I know, the cryptocurrency user are depending on the banks.
Without banks, we can not use global transfer money through cryptocurrency, because most of our activities still using fiat to payment instead of cryptocurrency.
I think this is the reason some countries still consider to accept cryptocurrency for payment.

the banks are afraid since people now store their money with cryptocurrency which they have control over at all times. banks normally use people's money stored with them to trade and do other things but the story is gradually changing as people now store their money in cryptocurrency making banks scared
