Crypto payments didn't fail—they just needed an intermediary.
That's the real insight here. The blockchain layer is solid, but it wasn't designed to slot directly into everyday transactions. Cards bridge that gap, connecting onchain assets to the physical world where people actually spend money. It's not about reinventing payments from scratch; it's about connecting two ecosystems that were always meant to work together.

Hmm... So basically, there's nothing wrong with crypto itself; it's just that you need an intermediary to use it. It feels like making excuses for failure...

Card schemes are just centralized systems in disguise, and they still have the audacity to talk about decentralization.

Oh, I see. It turns out that cryptographic payments aren't burned, they just need an intermediary to connect... It sounds like a rocket needing a booster, got it.
