Basically they would be buying credit, not pornography.

My first question: would that be okay?

And if not, my second solution would be to start a different website which sole purpose is to sell online credits (lets call it porncoins). Those coins can be used on any adult site that accepts this and can be used to buy anything, not just clips online content, but also clothing and that sort of stuff. This way it is not linked to the pornsite site directly. But they can log in with their user account and they can buy their credits there and use them on the clips site.

How would paypal feel about that? Because you're just selling credit, nothing else.
You cannot buy or sell "virtual currencies" on PayPal.
You cannot fund a wallet for that or another website.
You can use Paypal for porn with Epoch.com processing. Contact Epoch and see if they can process for your site's "credits" as a bulk package purchase that go into the Account of your Customers to spend part of the balance for the "goods" you offer.

My understanding is that Epoch is aggregating adult virtual transactions and processing them as a third-party processor with PayPal.
