A perfect description
Cashapp is also sort of an entirely online pseudo bank. There are places that let you deposit and withdraw cash, but they're like two steps above Bitcoin ATMs
I do know people who have these fully online banks though. On its own, it's a lot less convenient then just having an account with a local credit union where you can withdraw cash for free, and I really don't like that services like Venmo and Cashapp and Zelle are overtaking just handing physical dollar bills to each other
