Bitcoin vs Banks Era Ending: Trillion-Dollar Firms Embrace Crypto

The framing of Bitcoin as an adversarial force against banks is losing its analytical value as the largest financial institutions absorb crypto rather than resist it. That matters less as a price signal than as a structural one: the same balance-sheet players that once treated digital assets as a threat now treat them as a product line, which changes who sets market standards and who bears counterparty risk. Whether that convergence deepens or stalls on regulatory friction is the open question worth tracking.
