The banks ignore bitcoin not because of lack of regulations (they have no problem circumventing or breaking any regulations) but because the technology is not mature yet. Look at the maximum transaction throughput of blockchain – about 10 tx/sec. That’s the global limit. Sure, you can increase block size, go off-chain, and explore any number of other technical fixes, and once it’s done and stable and risks can be measured (and passed on to third parties) – banks will be all over bitcoin, or whatever it will be called then.
