I’m not sure honestly.

Companies are super risk averse. They’d rather use arcane tools with seriously battle tested guard rails. As an example, if someone hacked your email and sent them a fraudulent Bitcoin address, and they sent the BTC, they’d have no recourse. No way to reverse, nobody to even complain to. Corporations would much rather have those arcane layers to protect themselves.
