1)  My debit card doesn't cost me anything to use.  Buying Bitcoin costs me 1% or more to get and that's if the price hasn't crashed by the time it clears Coinbase.  So, accepting all that risk, paying more and maybe getting a discount, is a non-starter.   

Suppose you are on vacation or are doing business internationally. How much does it cost to exchange your local currency into a foreign currency? I don't actually know the answer to that but I would imagine it is at least 1%.

Tell me about it! Travel (even domestic) with a credit card is a major pain. Since credit cards are so insecure, the credit card companies panic every time you travel. My cards get frozen nearly every time I travel more than 100 miles from home.
