I think Stripe won a lot not because of prices, but by removing the need for PCI compliance and a (very good) API!

Exactly. Their pricing is actually not that great... they competed on building the best devX and making it 10x faster and easier for a startup to accept card payments than the alternatives at the time.

I think they are relatively struggling a bit more now because others (Adyen... ) have built similar experiences.

On the other hand crypto - at least theoretically - makes it even easier to accept payments, right?

Yes, but not from _everyone_ because too few people have wallets! I think that is why Paypal is investing in crypto so much more. They realized that many people has a paypal account!
