Sorry, I understand why a company would want to capitalize on the crypto bubble if it was 2022, but I meant this more as an existential "whyyyyy" but didn't have the energy for that.
I don't think they care if it's crypto, crypto is just one way to do it, they want to be the intermediary between people's transfers
They aren't an intermediary. It's a fully self-custody wallet.
Well, crypto is more secure. You couldn't really do that securely with a fiat system
