Being deplatformed by a bank is less of an issue because there are thousands of banks in the US. If you just need a checking account for your adult business, you're likely to find a bank that doesn't mind. Then you're on the ACH network and should be good to go as far as bitcoin goes. The only ones who could truly deplatform you off the banking system are the government, by making it illegal / highly burdensome to service you.
But the credit card industry is an oligopoly. If Visa or Mastercard don't like you, you're completely screwed as far as online payments go.
