Great that it works like that in Poland. It doesn't work like that in most places in the rest of the world, and certainly not between X <> Y places in the world (for example, how long time would a US > Poland transfer take?).
What cryptocurrencies enables is border-less transfers, where geographic location doesn't matter anymore, as long as you have a internet connection.

I wish I could be as optimistic as you. I have been living in three different countries for the last 20 years and heard that "instant wire transfers anywhere in the world" is coming for the last 20 years. Seems only Instant SEPA has been doing some actual work, but it still doesn't even cover 50% of the world.
And why wait for a centralized solution that might come 20 years in the future when you can use the decentralized solution that works today?
