This is just the beginning of the story...
Curieuse about their reaction to the blockchain evil... ;)

if French politicians think Uber is evil, i can't wait to hear their hysteria over blockchains!

Well anything that does not bringing taxes is EVIL...

haha and i thought it was bad being a tax slave of the USSA!

It was an analyst who wrote that. it can go a long way to the big guys, so I don't think it's fair to claim it "France's biggest bank admits blockchain". That guy alone probably doesn't represent the bank so all of this can just be his opinion, hyped by bitcoiners.

yup, but that's how the MSM works...nice headlines get hits

These Angels seems profitable where can I invest?

[Ander]

No, it meant that angel investors were attacking it. :P

While its unlikely that any one of hundreds of startups currently springing up will replace Santander or Barclays, banks face death by a thousand cuts as startups attack different parts of their businesses from multiple angels. If they don't do something soon it will start to affect the bottom line.

OMG they're being attacked from multiple angels.  I didn't know angels were so anti bank.  Makes sense though.

It said, "attacking from multiple angels". So clearly whoever was attacking was just riding the angels.

Ah.  Thanks riverhead, that makes more sense.

acknowledgement is key (changes sentiment, gets ball rolling)... he obviously represents the bank in one way or another.
