Brinks and Morters that go online will do fine, but purely virtual bank will fail, for the many years it will take the average consumer to learn how to benefit from them. I see you are still smoking the same weed you were on last time we crossed paths....that's what many said after the NTBK IPO when it was selling for about $3 (split-adjusted)....NTBK is profitable already and plans to have over $1 billion in assets by the end of the year...They have grown at a rate no brick-and-morter bank could ever have hoped to achieve.... Don't get me wrong, I own long-term stock in plenty brick-and-morter banks like CCB, GRAN, ISFC to name a few (and I currently don't own any net-only banks since I've taken my profits on NTBK and now USAB for now...)
