Topic: Not your keys not your funds Banks - page 2. (Read 525 times)

There seems to be nothing safe in reality. Before, keeping huge sums of money in your house isn't advisable. That's too risky. Your cold cash is difficult to keep. You're exposing it to robbers. You could spend it on useless stuff. Your house could catch fire. There might be flood. Your money could even be consumed by rodents and other pests.

And yet, keeping your money in the banks could mean it could be frozen from you. It could be locked. You might not be allowed to withdraw it indefinitely. Your bank could crash. This goes on.

Keeping your money in gold, real estate, stocks, business, Bitcoin, and so on doesn't mean they're safe either. Perhaps diversifying your money could somehow lessen the risk.

But i feel that crypto and cash are real money the bank balance on my bank account i feel little sceptical yes banks are safe but still i need that feeling that at least some of my funds are under my own control.

To be honest Banks have liabilities to other bigger banks and instutions If you own funds in bank it's not yours
In the future the new money system should be that at least some amount what you have in bank account for example up to 30k $ you can transfer into your private self custody wallet, i heard that's the plan and yes its needed.
Nowdays i feel like my bank account balance is just numbers and i have no control over it the true wealth i have is cash in my pocket or wallet and the cryptocurrency.
Also Banks hold extra liabilities to other financial instutions and bigger banks and you might have mortgage or car loan with your bank you might think they own it but not If your bank have problems than you might lose your home even you pay mortgage for your home.
The thing is that banks and other debit credit instutions don't expose to customers openly info about how much leverage or risk they have and liabilities what they need to pay to other financial instutions If not they must liquitate their assets.
In times like this you only want to deal with bigger banks and credit /debit instutions.

There's no where that you'll keep your money that it'll be 100% safe, whether it's physical cash, in investment, in the bank or through your wallet, there are robbers, scammers, natural or man-made disasters and bankruptcy can happen, so you'll have to take chances in choosing any option. But I think that one of the safest places to keep your money is in the bank, so far it's a trusted Bank that has built a solid reputation, they won't tell you stories anytime that you want to make withdrawals

the only disadvantage of leaving your money in the bank is if there's devaluation of your local currency.

I believe that most people who deposit money in the banks are only doing it for the purpose of saving and it is different from investing. They don't expect too much for it and they also don't hold it for too long there. There is also a risk in investing.

Banks do not physically store all deposited funds but instead utilize them for lending and investment purposes, maintaining only a fraction of the deposited amount as reserves. Keeping you money in a bank is a risky idea even though that is how it has been for a long time. There are other options to pick from rather than keeping all of your money in the bank. Rather than keeping all of your money in the bank, invest a portion of it in bitcoin, invest part of it in starting up a business, put some part in stocks or real estate. A $10000 sitting in your bank for 10 years will not give you the same returns as it would if you put invest it in one of the alternated schemes listed above that you understand.

One thing that is certain is that banks are not like safes that are safe for you to use to store money in the long term. Banks can go bankrupt.

This we are the exact concerns of satoshi nakamato that made him to create Bitcoin. You do not need to lament as if the government of your country mandated every of their citizen to have all their money in the bank. Bitcoin introduced a kind of liberty to us. Satoshi successfully created a way of being your own bank so you can choose to manage part of your money in Bitcoin and leave the rest in your local bank. You do not actually know what goes in the back end of the banks and other financial institutions in connection with their Godfather (the government). They work in tandem against the common man who sees bank as the safest place to save. The people have trusted the government so much that we give them all. You can decide to join the league of trustlessness. Run a node today and become a full bitcoiner.
