Ironically, the only times I've wired money internationally was so I could deposit fiat to a crypto exchange.

Canada to Japan, Canada to Poland. Each time it takes more than 2 weeks to arrive or be accessible in my account.

Whenever I "wire" crypto, it shows up in my account and is accessible in hours.

This is due to AML/KYC. The only reason you can do that with crypto is it's got the safety off.
