Considering their volume, I find it hard to believe that Valve couldn't find another, more lenient payment processor with similar fees.

They could support a stablecoin like USDC and start pushing people to that. No censorship and lower fees. Valve broke ground with Steam, they could do it again.

They also use dollars and credit cards and gift cards.
