Here's a specific example about the value crypto can create. 20x higher savings rate on a US dollar deposit.

My CapitalOne savings account pays 0.4%; you can open an account with ZeFi today and get 7% - 20 times more - with the same ACH in/out you're used to.[0] If you go full crypto and stay on-chain, you can find the USDC coin - a 1:1 stable coin - paying interest above 12% at many DEXes[1]. The USDC coin is like a mutual fund, it has extremely liquid high quality holdings, is audited, and is exchangeable 1:1 for actual US Dollars at any time [2].

Even better, some of these options let you keep control of your assets (non-custodial).

Because of this, it's inherently obvious to me that the US banks will be completely disrupted by crypto; in a good way for us consumers.
