Part of the monetization issue, at least in the United States, is that banks are under pressure to not do business with those involved with pornographic content, via those who want to stamp out such things. The banks seem to be the weak link; they'll disconnect from other payment gateways that do allow such content, etc.

at the risk of begging the question: who's pressuring the banks and why do they want to stamp out such things to begin with? Is there some hidden financial incentive or is it a pure political interest happening from a different place of power than the usual government system?

That's not true. Banks charge more for porn vendors because of high chargebacks and fraud. No one boycotts banks over porn.
