"The problem lies in the data Valve uses to make these suggestions." According to the YouTuber, Valve hasn't updated its conversion rates since 2022, when it first introduced the regional pricing system. At that point in time, "the Polish currency was near its weakest" – but Steam is still "using this weak old rate" from three years ago.

Steam reccomends exchange rate, but it was last updated when złoty was very weak. Now people are demanding steam to update exchange rates to the current ones.
