It might be useful if it is used like a real life bank:-Main Function is loaning money.-Can only loan up to the sum of what people have deposited in bank (plus a certain amount of money that is used as a backup)-Encourage members to deposit money in bank by offering a small interest return on accounts.-Loans are only available to TRUSTED rank or above, and priority is based on amount asked for and (higher ranked individuals, longer time on server, etc.) -Loan rates are based on amount of money in the bank at start of each day.I think that this could really be nice for people looking to start big projects that are fairly resource intensive.
I like having all my money on me, banks are pointless
About posts, how do you even post a post?
I like the idea, but there's plenty of problems.What if someone took 100,000$ from the bank bought tons of protection stones places them everywhere and leaves the server.
This is becoming a terrible topic. Loans to trusted only? Losing your house? Going in debt? People, this is Minecraft! Save the getting evicted and crap for real life or go play The Sims.

There's no way to enforce loans. Plus, Opticraft is pretty close to Laissez-faire capitalism, Where the 'government' doesn't involve itself with player-based trades. I mean, You aren't even protected if someone went back on a deal. So I don't see how a loaning system would be secured by the server. I mean you can be a complete douchebag and loan 100,000$ from someone, and not pay it back. And the rules don't protect you *Unless of course they decided to improve it a bit*.
