Sadly it doesn't seem to be working out as the crypto-enthusiast author might have wanted.

Source?

literally the link in the post above what you replied to.

ahhhh, I had misunderstood what they were referencing. I had assumed it meant things weren't working out for PH. When the quote meant to refer to how things weren't working out for OF.

Didn't they had the same problem a few months ago or so?

> How do sites like Pornhub get paid then?

At the moment I'm pretty sure they don't. At least, not via card-based payment systems.

Don't pornography companies typically use payment processors that are considered pretty shady? Or, these days I'd imagine most of them accept cryptocurrency.

They are "shady" only by circular reasoning, because they handle porn.

Objectively, they also charge much higher fees because of the high chargeback rates associated with porn. They also tend to process other unsavory transactions, which also have higher chargeback rates; hence they are "shady."
