Correct me if I'm wrong, but this still falls far short of like, VISA.

PoS and Sharding on ETH (part of ETH2) should theoretically allow it to surpass VISA's transaction bandwidth. (Visa Currently reported to be around 65k Tx/s, though average volume is somewhere in the 1-5k Tx/s)

You're not wrong :-D
