As Murray walker used to say ‘anything can happen and it probably will’ . The contesting news here is the Wise current account paying 3.36 percent in balances as direct competition to our mean tight fisted tier 1banks closing down branches everywhere. Of course there is no £85,000 guarantee like uk banks but quite honestly I wouldn’t bank on getting any money out of a uk bank either with this government in charge. Wise has held steadfast in this current crisis but we know it’s going to be growth over profit for sometime to come . It depends how much you are prepared to pay in advance for that growth, and whether the uk banks see Wise as a real threat to fight back. I somehow doubt they will all start paying fairer interest rates on savings accounts never mind current accounts. Also I don’t think it’s likely Wise will postpone Listing on Nasdaq, even though as you say it is perfectly possible.
