Several banks have recently announced that they are restricting the purchase of cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin (₿). Complaints that banks refuse to purchase cryptocurrencies using credit cards are not news. However, this was just an assumption on behalf of clients until recently. These banks are introducing policies prohibiting or restricting the purchase of cryptocurrencies represents a significant shift in the banking industry. Although, I am sure that as soon as banks begin to delve into crypto signals, they will conclude that cryptocurrency is a fairly stable thing.

Credit cards are a form of crypto currency... so is what is in your bank account. Most people don't realize what a crypto currency is and think crap like "BitCoin" is a good investment. News flash it isn't while bank accounts are insured against losses by the government bit coin is not. Private crypto currencies have zero value and are a scam and many of these are being run up in price by billionaires who will then cash out and devalue them leaving the gullible stuck with a bunch of worthless ones and zeros in the cloud.

That crypto-currency will be the USD.

There are already hundreds of mediums of exchange including every currency and commodity.

I doubt that I'll be buying any additional types of ponzi pence apart from the ones I currently use.

To proffer pieces of polymer promises for goods and services is already sufficiently hilarious.
