Banks aren't going anywhere. Fiat is still "king" when it comes to paying for goods and services in the mainstream world. The number of merchants and businesses accepting Fiat currencies are far greater than those who accept Bitcoin as payment method. People seem to trust banks with their Fiat more than Bitcoin, because the former is stable and backed by the government. A decentralized cryptocurrency like Bitcoin makes people skeptical since there's no regulating or issuing authority that would give it a certain level of legitimacy. Fiat will eventually shift from paper to digital as banks take advantage of crypto/Blockchain tech. Trust into banks will never be gone, but Bitcoin will always be there for those who need it the most. Just my opinion

These financial institutions have to stay in business to pay their staff and remain in operation this defines the charges they deduct for SMS and mobile banking transactions just that once in a while they overdo the tariff they deduct from their customers.

wise choice. After all, we can't be completely separated from the bank because all the ease of transactions and its very wide adoption make our lives easier. on the other hand, bitcoin is still limited in its use at this time, especially in many countries that prohibit its use as a means of payment, even though its other functions as an investment tool and trading commodity have been granted permission.
so please adjust it according to our individual needs, we don't have to choose one, right? just use both to maximize the function of each other.

Both are trustworthy.  But saving a lot of money in the bank makes us uneasy.  Because they always bother us by asking questions about our money.  While buying bitcoin, it makes us calmer and no one disturbs us and most importantly the price of bitcoin continues to rise.

I wouldn't say it is the perfect alternative to banking yet. We are far from critical mass in terms of user numbers and user profiles. It is not like you can freely transact on a daily basis with everybody because by far not everybody has Bitcoin nor wants to transact with it because of the high fees. That might change in the future.

The store of value argument also doesn't fully hold true because there is too much volatility, potentially making your money put into bitcoin unavailable unless you are willing to use it at a loss. Banks still fulfill several very important functions and we are quite a bit away from having a strong banking substitute.

At current time i support Fiat because in Banks our Data us saved and our money is fully secured. No one can steal or decrease our money. If any mistakes happen we can apeal to Government.
 While in Btc Big whale can half your portofolio. Also if all exchanges stop to exchange bitcoin we cannot do anything.

even in my country banking is not insured but gets a guarantee of replacement from the state, if the bank suffers a loss, of course this makes people still use the bank for collateral as well. although it is true that the value of money is unstable and the possibility of inflation is very possible, especially during a pandemic like this, almost all countries experiencing a prolonged economic crisis are certainly likely to occur. but not for bitcoin because the amount is fixed and the supply will keep decreasing due to the halving so the value will keep increasing. so it is profitable if you want to invest in bitcoin.

I am a believer in Bitcoin. There are already many posts on the forum to explain Bitcoin. There is no need to explain, just do it.

• Actively publicize, let more people know---user education
• Actively increase applications and consumption scenarios to allow Bitcoin to penetrate every corner of life
• I hope that more institutions, more people, and more sovereign countries will participate and increase the trust of Bitcoin.
• It is very important to make Bitcoin the safest value transmission network
• Simplify the transaction process of Bitcoin, reduce the handling fee, and make the speed faster.
• Effectively stop illegal criminal activities carried out on the Bitcoin network, and provide users with a safe and reliable financial environment.

I guess when the discussion comes to banks, among the most important factors to judge whether it is mostly trustworthy or not is its geolocation. Sure you could argue that American banks can go bankrupt, be corrupt and what not, but I would rather entrust my money with a bank that is located in a democratic county than with a bank that is located in a dictatorship with corrupt governments.
