Sure. And that's one of the problems with being first to infrastructure. It's really hard to just "change it all" once something new and better takes hold. It'll get better, even if it's not that great right now. Though, I largely take issue with your statement that U.S. banking feels archaic. I'd say U.S. banking is, if nothing else, generally at the forefront of digital technology despite heavy regulation. (I'm not arguing regulation bad/good, but it is a fact that the industry is heavily regulated).
