The Stellar Network (and to some extent Algorand) seems to be more efficient than the current system and they aim to work with it as their solution(s) works faster, globally and cheaply, hence why Moneygram chose Stellar for its new product and why Stripe removed Bitcoin payments and re-entered again until regulations were clearer and more cryptocurrencies were available.
Not all cryptocurrency technologies are the same.
Problems that have been solved in a "Traditional Finance" setting (eg. clawback, chargeback, dispute resolution) are either solved or being worked on by many different cryptocurrency projects.
The question which remains to be answered is whether or not cryptocurrency can solve problems that TradFi can't solve or can it solve them in a better way, or more efficiently, etc.
