In the US I just iMessage money to people. Doesn’t work for Android, sure, but I know very few people still using Android and for them we just use Venmo.

Not the same.

Payments in Asia and other developed countries are instant - bank to bank. No crappy 3rd party app.

So how do I text someone money bank-to-bank? How do I give someone money who doesn't have a bank account? I do this today with iMessage. And it's not a 3rd party app.

Someone without a bank account but an iPhone? Sure.
