This screams so hard to buy a bank to solve this problems out for the gaming industry. Valve has the capital to do this but probably not the CEO...

  I know someone who bought a defunct bank to solve a family wealth repatriation catch-22 issue. This might be a sensible approach. Or, if they had some sense, they'd get into the credit business with their own "store card" that doesn't use V/MC. With this, they'd have the leverage to tell credit card processors to "get bent" should V/MC try telling them how to run their business and what content is acceptable.

    And the thing is, I absolutely trust Valve to run a bank / provide a card. They’ve built such good will over a quarter of a century at this point that I’d love to see them step up to implement a solution like this for me.
