Best option for non-US countries is to ban scrip currencies and illegal gambling.

If the US oligarch doesn’t immediately comply and starts parroting American-style “legal roleplay” polemics, put them on a wanted list and storm their yacht when it is international waters.

No sacred cows on this, should apply to Epic, Valve or whoever.

Valve doesn’t use any form of script currency tho. Everything is straight government currency.

Steam wallet is just a glorified gift card with USD/euro/etc

So weird you call valve out on this one when they literally are the sole exception to this problem.

  Valve removed lootboxes from their games? When did this happen?
  
  I stand by what I say, we need consistent enforcement and not picking favourites.
