It's safer than a credit card, since payments happen by sending currency (like cash) rather than forking over bank or credit card credentials to a website (the equivalent of forking over private keys) Why should it be safer than paying by credit card? If a payment is fraudulent it's not my problem and I get refunded. If the service I paid for isn't received or is not as advertised I have the means of a charge back. With crypto no matter how turn it it's gone. And looking at customer service at tech companies I put exactly zero stock that I get help from them. So I think you have that backwards. Transaction fees are far lower Says who? We don't know that yet, do we? Edited to add: I think the comparison between handing over my credit card number to a website with handing over my private keys is beyond ludicrous.
