I have a friend who works at a major bank and they use Blockchain technology to keep track of something or ither internally, though I don't remember exactly what. In this case at keast we can bet that it has found a problem wirth using it to sokve. Banks are nothing if not efficient.

I envy your trust in the efficiency of banks

If it's used internally, then I question whether it made sense to use blockchain. At the end of the day, it's probably the trust in the bank that matters and not blockchain.

Banks are nothing if not efficient.

Banks are businesses made up of people. If a manager thought he could get a promotion by supporting a blockchain project at the height of blockchain mania, that's what he would do. Whether if fails or not is of no consequence, the manager is already on another project.
