I'd like to have a look at the actual wording of the question, to see what 'putting trust in banks for mobile wallets' actually means. It makes sense that people would trust their banks rather than government to manage a mobile wrapper for payment instruments. But as Jim says, that doesn't necessarily mean people would trust their banks to look after digital representations of primary government issued forms of ID and licensing.

Oxford v Cambridge - sounds like an opportunity for a new kind of Boat Race.

I almost forgot the question. This is a volatile currency, and in the recent past pretty big devaluations have come off the back of hacking and theft incidents (and take down of SilkRoad marketplace). But $1 million of Bitcoins were stolen from an Australian online bank last week, and I just read this story today about $5 million worth and a possibly dodgy Chinese Bitcoin platform going missing in action But the bubble persists?
