Nos sure if sarcasm, but it does not. It will never get even close of handling 10% of CO's amount of transactions.

I hope it was sarcastic. If not, a bank does so much more. Banks lend money and keep deposits safe (most of the time :)). Does bitcoin lend money? Can bitcoin pay my vendors in USD? Will it accept my deposits or ACH direct deposits?
