Not arguing about the merits of blockchain, but if your money is in a bank, it is on a computer that depends on cryptography (TLS) for controlling access.

edit: Well, ok, at least then it's not just crypto standing between your assets and someone else. Then there's going to be at least another layer, like multifactor authentication, VPN/MPLS, etc., depending on the point being attacked.
