More and more people are waking up toward the censorship that mainstream payment processor has enacted toward their user. With the news of Steam and Itch.io getting cornered because they host adult games, more people become aware that Visa/Mastercard and Paypal is not a safe company to be trusted with their payment.
Their censorship is not stopping to big company however, small creator and freelancers who rely heavily on internet economy is being targeted too sometimes randomly sometimes without any fair consideration. Even adding note "commission" on their transaction could risk them being banned even though what they commissioning is not breaking any law and sometimes it's not even a NSFW content.

And who will hold this debt you may ask? to simply answer that, it's the whole world. United States want to spread this economic burden thin by allowing people to buy and hold their debt in the form of stablecoin.
Now we can see the behaviour of mainstream processor more clearly and precisely. If the goal is to force people to leave traditional payment and use crypto stablecoin as their alternative then what Visa/Mastercard and Paypal has done become logical. This is their ultimate agenda.
