There is lots of companies in online adult doing lots of money, think at big cam and traffic broker networks for example... just they will not tell their financials in forums as fear the tax thing
About miracle buy... in past 3 years lots of big sites was sold and purchased for multi million deals, but in silent mode, as buyer was not hahaha or manwin. And if it is not hahaha or manwin to buy, no one knows (at times not even the employees know who is the new owner lol). That's because most (except manwin?) will not write any press, not reply any forum rumor, and hide big time, but not because they're mafia or money launder people really. They're geeks. Note that the italian mafia's yearly revenue is $90 billion, russian one may be not that smaller, and offshore banks investors deal the billion things, so I don't think they really care to $100 million deals like buy pornhub and put nathan there. Yes $100 million looks big for a site but is small for the real conspiracy theory people.
Nathan is just one who replies to forum people giving info (eventually too much info, if he was my puppet leader I would have fired him for talking too much, le seems more like Steve Jobs who reply in person to email of guy who say iphone 4 sucks as drops signal iof hold left handed, and he reply hold it with the other hand) and this talkative attitude sure is more shocking and uncommon than the $100 million thing or the whole tube theft content thing. Oh by the way I advertized on pornhub and conversion is indeed low
Just my 2 euro cents
