    I mean, that wasn't due to some deeply held ethical position. Blockchain would mean that Valve no longer controls the flow of hats.

      It still would. It's not like the games themselves are hosted on the blockchain, Steam is still the centralized bottleneck. If you have an NFT of a hat, Valve can still tell the blockchain game devs to remove the in-game item associated the NFT from someone's account and while the player might keep the NFT, without the hat it's worthless.
