Ok, fact check.
How many BTC wallets exist?
It that number comparable to Steem users?
Let's check trading volume,
Bitcoin is counted in tens of billions for BTC and the worst is Cardano, 60 M
And let's check Steem
Hm... Only millions. Not good

Why USD is stable and accepted as universal? Because 5.000.000.000 people know about it and use it.

Can Ripple improve it a bit - yes.
Can we implement crypto in administration - yes
Gain more freedom in trading - yes
Should we replace FIAT with Crypto?
Unless we want a war that would last for 100 years across the globe - no
