There's no assuming going on. Cryptocurrencies are worse than credit cards 
for everything that normal people care about, and they're better than 
credit cards for illegal transactions. This might eventually change, and 
we can re-evaluate then.

If for some reason cryptocurrencies become popular and sufficiently stable 
to be used as currency, I have no doubt that existing credit card 
companies will start offering automatic currency exchange, so you can have 
an account in USD and pay a vendor who accepts only Ethereum, or vice 
versa. As such, accepting credit card payments is good enough.
