The banking industry consists of financial institutions providing services like deposits, loans, and payment processing. This sector traditionally serves as the primary intermediary for monetary transactions and capital allocation within global economies. It operates under extensive regulatory frameworks designed to maintain financial stability and protect consumer assets. Its operations contrast sharply with the decentralized nature of many digital asset systems.

Debates often center on regulatory arbitrage, the potential for central bank digital currencies, and the integration of blockchain technology into existing financial infrastructure. A critical future development involves how traditional banks adapt their services and compliance mechanisms to incorporate or interact with decentralized financial products.
