alt Hacker NewsI stayed away from cryptocurrency when DeFi and Web3 and NFTs were everywhere, but I've started paying with BTC where I can, so I don't have to deal with banking apps, and to stick it to puritanical payment processors, after the Steam/Itch debacle.

Know Your Customer is not acceptable at all. It is the financial arm of warrantless global mass surveillance. The government got the private sector to do all the surveilance for them.
Monero is the cryptocurrency everyone uses for this. The userbase and community is completely separate from the Web3 NFT dog-coin crowd (unlike Bitcoin).
There's also systems like PaySafeCard, which is accepted by Steam.
