According to a few sites, Visa shut them down. After that Hatreon didn't (yet) get another payment processor setup. Their homepage [1] says:
"This site's services were suspended by VISA in November of 2017."
Kicking alt-right people off platforms is a band aid solution. A storm is forming that will explode at some point. You can't just silence people like that an expect good outcomes long term.
I imagine the next big wave of cryptocurrency use will be by alt-right users. They're coordinated, resourced, and tech savvy enough.
Crypto-enabled Spotify, crypto-enabled Patreon/Kickstarter, Crypto-enabled YouTube...basically writes itself at this point. I wonder if there's an alt-right HackerNews out there already.
