Simple solution. Itch.io takes payment in cryptocurrencies. Vote with your (crypto-)wallet.
... Which will result in prices for games fluctuating wildly, and their entire storefront having to tell people how to by crypto from shady places.
Stuff like FedNOW and Wero are a better solution which bypass payment processors entirely.
That really depends on the crypto being used and you can buy crypto from non-shady places lol
To those who are saying the price of things would be volatile because they are accepting crypto. That isn’t how buying things works. The asset is volatile. Not the cost of the thing you are buying.
Just try to check out a cart anywhere that allows for cryptocurrency payment. Mullvad is a place I can suggest. They even give you a discount for doing so.
Crypto is unfortunately too volatile, GNU-Taler is the better option
Why does it matter if it is volatile? I've used crypto to keep newsgroups going for years. You buy $10 worth at the time, doesn't matter if it's worth $5 or $20 tomorrow, it's served it's purpose.
Just do the same as PH and similar do? They would have a hard time shutting down whole other industry like that.
