Do you really need to set up a US entity just to open a US bank account?

If not, I would set up a US checking account and settle some portion stripe transactions there. Take that revenue and pay your US vendors. No currency conversions.

You can have a USD bank account, but Stripe won't pay out to it, they'll only pay out to an AUD account and take the 2% along the way.
