    Experts call for caution about digital currencies, such as bitcoin and Ethereum, but financial firms are considering adopting them or even establishing their own. News of the 23-year-old, Russian-born programmer’s demise was soon proved false – but not before 20%, or roughly $4bn, had been wiped from Ethereum’s soaring market value. That's certainly worrying..But they will have many disadvantages as well.Banks are regulated entity. so they can't create a decentralized currency. They will have to employ proper accounting system for that. They will have to keep track of every single transaction. So they will never have the anonymity what bitcoin enjoys. So a lot of people will simple not indulge in to this.
    But the most worrying part is that, if the banks are started using blockchain technology to create their own currency...we will soon see an influx of fiat currency in to the organized and regulated market which will decrease the value of traditional currency which will in turn make the people poorer, especially those who have never experienced the crypto world.
