This is clearly not true. International money transfers are ridiculously cheaper with crypto.

Use it for _pure transfers_ i.e. don't hold the digital asset, and you would have saved nearly 90% in transfer fees compared to traditional wire transfers.

Another one, store of value in countries suffering insane levels of inflation since the Covid + Ukraine war double whammy for example Turkey, Argentina etc.

Not sure if you're speaking from ignorance of cryptos use cases, or out of personal animosity towards crypto. . .
