Growing need of bank wallets

[RDS]

Hi Guys. 

Do you think that with increasing price of xrp there is increased risk of accounts being hacked, specially when the account balances can be seen through bithomp. I understand that there are options available of putting them in cold wallets, but not many of us are geek enough to understand that or may be scared that they will lose it if computer breaks, or any other reasons. 

I think all of us have money in the bank account and never lose sleep about security because we know there is increased level of security in case of money in  bank accounts so I am really looking forward to a bank starting Xrp wallet with the same level of security as bank accounts. 

Please let me know what you think..

I second this. Specially after i saw somebody lost a million xrp due yo a hack and considering how long it takes for gatehub to getback to us and they do not have even phone support.

I get ur point mate, but its hard to differentiate hacker's wallet from a good one so people who dont know much abt computer they would want a responsible institution like bank who can be answerable if things go wrong...

Banks are gonna help ya till the point the goverments are ready to bail them out.

Goverments which are indebted... borrowing to the hilt

If you really wanna go this road, then it's gold, silver, some hard cash,guns, ammo, food cans.

Oh, and a place far away from urban leftist propaganda infested areas.

Feel free to be afraid.

Edit: yes, I probably read too much zerohedge.com
