Yes but you're currently competing against a lumbering, outdated and over-regulated marketplace that's ripe for renovation.
What do you think will happen the minute these banks get real competition? They will update their network and make transactions cost 5c, or N-1 where N is the current BTC transaction cost. They will always be ahead because their limits are self-imposed and solved through simple software, not intentionally and computationally difficult.
And they already are! I can instantly send money to all of my friends with venmo paying no transaction fees. And I don't even have to argue with them about the inherent value of US dollars and the problems with fiat currencies!
