I'm genuinely looking forward to a day that we can do this. Digitally transfer money between each other.

Right now, you are probably losing more money that Ttansferwise because it costs a considerable amount of money to convert them to Fiat currency.

Agree. Also, you loose money when you buy it. P2P transfer is extremely cheap, but on-ramp and off-ramp are horrible. That's why there are so many exchanges making money in Bitcoin business.
