Regular payments are pretty much impossible, except for crypto, which excludes 99% of your potential customers. Add an .onion domain on top of that, and there's basically nothing left to gain in terms of profit.

Also, a list of the TOR exit nodes (IP's) is hosted on the official TOR project website: https://check.torproject.org/torbulkexitlist

I'd bet most, if not all, affiliate programs have those IP's on their blacklist, which means, no affiliate sales either. Same for ad networks, and even some webmasters block TOR traffic.


I'm not a rocket scientist, but basic math tells me that I would lose around 99.999% of my income, if I'd swith to the TOR network today.
There is nothing called exit nodes when you access onion sites, exit nodes are only used when accessing normal sites (clearnet sites) with TOR browser. An exit node is used to leave the TOR network, we leave TOR network when we access a .com or .net site with TOR browser, but we do not leave the TOR network when we access .onion sites
