So, why doesn't some other payment processor step in to fill in the demand gap that the others are willfully abdicating?

They don't have a lot of things to measure when attempting to address fraud, but that's one of them.

The most likely to succeed at the moment, IMHO, would be a standardization of the various local payment systems in Europe, and there is already some movement in that direction in a growing group of countries, but it probably needs a push from the EU itself, similarly to how GSM was pushed as a standard for mobile communications by European governments as a group and ended up dominating globally (which is also why, for a period and until smartphones became a thing, European mobile telephony companies were wildly successful).
I'm sorry for Americans who aren't assholes (most here in Lemmy as far as I can tell) but the rest of the World does need to decouple from speed-running-to-Gilead America at all levels before it's too late.
