I know he is banned from a lot of them but I wanted to keep it broad in case of an alternative that may exist that I was unaware of
Just do a monthly auction. Show up in an IRC channel, bring bitcoins. Whoever wins the bidding gets to feature their ad on the top. Static image, link, no JavaScript, no porn.

Probably not that much money, but better than nothing.
A good idea compared to my original one, the infrequency and potential for money would probably be a lot higher too.

Realistically we're dealing with maybe $100/month. So it would be helpful, but not nearly enough to pay the bills. Some numbers:

THIS IS NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE
>assume 300k hits per month
>assume 0.05% CTR
>gives 150 clicks
>assume 5% of all clicks convert
>gives 7.5 conversions
>assume each conversion is $20
>gives $150

The buyer can get $150 before expenses if he points them to some bitcoin casino, maybe. That means he's willing to buy ads for maybe $100. Also some people might be willing to pay >$100 to advertise on here directly.

$100/mo is a CPM of $0.33 or a CPC of $0.67. For comparison, dodgy porn/torrent sites have CPMs in the $0.5 range, and this auction system will probably bring the price down further.

On the other hand, it's direct payments in crypto, and you might strike gold.
