While many believe traditional banks oppose the crypto revolution, the truth is more nuanced. Financial giants are adopting blockchain technology, but with strict controls—no tokens, no decentralization, and definitely no Bitcoin.
🔍 Major Cases Shaping the Landscape
✅ #HSBC
Launched a blockchain-based platform to settle tokenized gold transactions in London. Fully on-chain, but without public cryptocurrencies.
Operates a private blockchain (Onyx) for institutional payments using tokenized U.S. dollars. Even governments are exploring this system.
Active in national blockchain initiatives for trade and cross-border payments, with tight state oversight.
⚖️ Revolution or Rebranding?
Banks embrace blockchain but reject:
🚫 Public cryptocurrencies like $BTC or $ETH
🚫 Permissionless systems.
🚫 Community governance.
They seek efficiency gains while keeping full control.
💬 Conclusion
“Blockchain without crypto” is becoming a trend. But true decentralization lives on through projects that empower people, not institutions.
👁️🗨️#BitValue supports that vision—turning real-world data into fair economic value without relying on banks or intermediaries.
