>And before you mention the 3rd world needs crypto as a "usecase"

I'm an American. I got into crypto completely by accident. I needed to quickly send a large amount of cash to a family member out-of-state. I couldn't wire the money due to transfer limits on my family member's account. My banker told me it would take up to a week for a personal check to clear. My bank charges $10 for a cashier's check. FedEx told me it would be $65 to overnight the check.

Someone suggested I try Bitcoin. I purchased the amount in Bitcoin on Binance for no fees. I sent the Bitcoin to my family member for a transaction fee <$3. They received the amount within an hour. Within another hour, they had converted back to fiat.

Bitcoin solved a problem for me, as an American. I'd be glad to learn of a cheaper, easier alternative.
