I call maximum shenanigans on "cheaper" unless you're sending large amounts of money.
Bitcoin: ~$25
Ethereum (and all tokens): ~$17
For comparison, to burn that much in fees on Paypal (2.5% + 30c), I'd need to send around 10K.
Crypto is currently pointless for anything other than big transactions, and the unpredictability of the transaction fees, let alone the coin's value, is a big problem.
