Stripe is not the only option for payments. Why not switch instead of giving up? Sounds like a neat product.
What are the best alternatives to Stripe that offer better quality service, the same ease of integration especially with Wordpress based plugins, good pricing, and much better customer support?

I'm not saying they're not the best. I'm just saying they're not the only ones.

Or you can forge ahead and accept cryto payments which will reduce your customer pool but eliminate fraud
> but eliminate fraud How does crypto eliminate fraud? It eliminates KYC and AML (until you try to turn crypto into fiat), and you probably won't be held accountable for accepting a fraudulent transaction (yet), but stolen crypto wallets are definitely for sale and being used: https://cybersecurityventures.com/dark-web-price-list-crypto...

Because running a business on cryptocurrency adds a lot of other operational headaches. Like volatility and currency conversion. If I’m running a small business, I want to focus on that and not an additional forex business
USDC is stable, not to mention you can charge in cryptocurrency based on the value of it compared to your native dollar. Not to mention the fees of using Stripe are insane compared so some networks that have native USDC.
