I agree, Bitcoin fees are too high for this use case. There are other assets with faster/cheaper transactions.

I just wanted honestly answer the comment about why cryptocurrency is better in this case (even if it’s not all cryptocurrency).

I could also say why it’s worse: price instability (that $100 you had to your name is now $70), no way to force a refund, not widely used, and you have to manage keys. I’m sure there are more.
