Yup, and crypto nips that in the bud. If you get a confirmed transaction, it's not going to be reversed by some unfair arbitration, you can trust it.
It sucks trying to run a game losing $20+ per chargeback and risking getting funds frozen entirely.
It sucks to be delisted by PayPal over political bullshit.
It sucks Mastercard and other CC companies can decide porn is essentially illegal.

The point is you're at the whim of PayPal, Stripe, and credit card company policies for traditional fiat currency.
Have fun trying to sell guns (FFL be damned), porn subs (legal like you mentioned), virtual currency (legal ofc), or anything like that with traditional processors.
Crypto is the only option for those industries and a few others if you want to accept payment online.
Doesn't matter how many billions the industry is worth if you can't accept a credit card on your site for the service.
If all majors processors ban it, it's essentially blocked.
