Yes it’s very good news for Bitcoin these little victories build into big victories HODL.

The news is good, as is all news of this style. Although in my case I would not deposit Bitcoin in a bank, you know, not your keys...

I wonder if banks accepting Bitcoin deposits are going to give any advantage, interest or anything. Banks that allow you to leave gold in a safe deposit box charge you for it but in return they give you more security than if you keep it at home. As for depositing Bitcoin, I don't see any advantage.

If he has that kind of perspective, then he can try to pursue it even though he starting this kind of this alone without any other bank in Mexico will follow him. of course, it will gonna be a tough thing to do especially for those people who don't really know much more about cryptocurrency. When he wants to do this, he also needs to save some budget to educate the people about it since no one will care unless they know the value of it.

After the statement that they are eyeing Bitcoin/crypto, Mexico's central bank was quick to counter, telling "The country's financial institutions are not authorized to carry out and offer to the public operations with virtual assets such as Bitcoin" and that those who do will face "applicable sanctions."

All this is a war of words and it's not yet easy to predict what's going to happen next. For now, the central bank seems to have got a small victory, at least by slowing down the adoption there.

I saw this news also on Twitter and it's really shocking...

as a businessman engaged in banking, he will really change the way of thinking about Bitcoin in Mexico. people will feel safe with Bitcoin and will surely create mass adoption there.

Wow that's good and I believe it is another score for the crypto industry if it's true, and it will be better if you include the link to the official statement of Ricardo Salinas Pliego because base on your OP it is not clear" he hopes his bank will become the first bank in Mexico to accept Bitcoin" if he owns the Bank why he is only hoping if he can do it easily? what does he mean? Is Ricardo Salinas Pliego is just pointing out the Mexican regulatory requirements as an obstacle? or he was not sure about what he said. just asking?

acceptance of bitcoin by several countries with storage in the form of banks, they will pay according to the money we save in several examples of banks, how about an interest system and how do they pay interest to a customer who keeps his assets in the bank. this will be in accordance with their respective procedures and provisions.if it really happened in accordance with applicable regulations.maybe this is the right step for us to save or deposit it to the bank

I believe it will be a successful project. Bitcoin will be an alternate option for fita in the bank and people can transact bitcoins with the bank.
If one would ask, I'd say this move to accept Bitcoin by the bank would in tremendous way increase the adoption of bitcoin in the mainstream world.
Quite a lot of people would become interested in owning bitcoin just like they did with bank shares. Trust me, this will ultimately help increase the price of bitcoin also.

That's correct. Just it takes time and money. That's why I said "slowing down" and not "stopping" 

Although it's quite surprising banks decide to accept Bitcoin, but I have to say they realize the value of Bitcoin. But nothing there to overexcited, because the bank is a centralized organization. If all banks start accepting Bitcoin then Bitcoin will look like a centralized cryptocurrency Although functionally decentralized forever. But still, I will take it positively. I never agree to compare Bitcoin with gold, both are different things like as you said Bitcoin has a limited supply. I do not agree as well to call fiat fraud. If I am not wrong we still need it for at least a few more years. There is nothing success or failure, either bank accepts or not, Bitcoin is Bitcoin.
