  1. sure it can replace cash, but at the cost of mining, and actual usability. anything can replace cash. doesn't mean it will.

  2. again, this is still possible with existing systems of cash, so I don't know who and how will benefit more from crypto.

  3. how often do people actually do that? the most that happens is when my aunt mails me... get this... cash.

Banks cause way more pollution and suffering. And pyramid schemes. Crypto isn't even close.
