The article lost me at fees. I saw a friend from Ireland last summer. They looked at us apps like cash app & zelle like that’s cool - but the app we use doesn’t charge instant fees and is not traceable.

On the other hand, this could be the death of physical currency in the us?

Finally, it feels insane that this has taken so long.

So is this any different than e-transfer? I haven’t paid any fees or anything sending money via e-transfer to friends or businesses since it started in Canada. It’s not 10 seconds but it’s less than 3 minutes usually.

I had no idea this was happening. Is this going to eliminate the need for Zelle and Venmo? Or is this more like I can send money from my bank to my credit union in an instant?
