So what would actually need to change for a blockchain to be considered truly “bank-ready”? \n\nIn this episode of the Wirex Podcast, host Lianna Adams sits down with Peter Bidewell, Head of Product at Rayls, to explore what banks really mean when they talk about trust, reliability, and readiness. From uptime and reversibility to privacy, regulation, and accountability, this conversation breaks down the real-world standards blockchain must meet to operate at institutional scale. \n\n👉 Tune in to hear: \nWhat “bank-ready” actually means in plain language \nWhy banks still hesitate to use public blockchains \nWhether infrastructure beyond the chain — custody, wallets, guarantees — matters more than the tech itself \nHow refunds or reversibility could work on-chain \nWhat level of uptime and resilience banks expect \nWho takes responsibility when something goes wrong \nThe privacy standards financial institutions require \nWhat banks would realistically use blockchain for first \nIf blockchain wants to serve global finance, it has to deliver reliability, accountability, and trust — at scale. ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/Ukx58juzr43mQw8Pqtl_yQJ8gUf8OeY8xHkVhXBEDXY/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzUwNjMzLzE3MDk5/MTA2MjAtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
