    the way crypto currency works there is no bank involved. you load the "wallet" as a file onto your system that says how much you have and you generate a private key to open the wallet. you pay for the contents of the wallet. then as you spend (anonymously) the wallet is reduced by the block chain to show your spend and balance. idiots don't protect their wallet and private key as cash, so they get ripped off. stupido dumbo.
