Crytocurrencies transactions are significantly cheaper than wire transfers.

That's a real world use case.

Cryptocurrencies are not always cheaper. They used to be but not anymore.

In Europe, I split a 0.36 Euro SEPA fee for a 1000 Euro transaction between two different banks in two different countries.

Bitcoin would have cost me $3-5 if not more.
