Big Banks Are All Over Blockchain

Exactly. This is the point I make when people start talking about how Ripple coin is going to revolutionize banking. Blockchain will definitely be useful for banking, but i’ve been able to come up with no reason to involve a cryptocurrency.

Ripple coin can [potentially] provide single currency for banks operating across the globe, if it is able to get wider acceptance and ensure low volatility. I too have my doubts but this[1] post explains it well.

Except it doesn't give a single reason for banks to use ripple ( or any other crypto) at all.
