Just to speak of the "fiat" alternatives here:
Alipay and WeChat are free and convenient in China, relying on simple QR code scans to pay contacts. They are free. Other countries have similar things (LINE?)
PayPal is so close to being this too but it's just so clunky and relies on input of your friends' email addresses.
If I remember correctly Visa tried doing their own thing in the UK some time ago (Visa V.me) but it didn't really catch for whatever reason.
