The idea of payment processors doing it is actually pretty good but I have to agree that it is NOT going to happen.
And lets not forget if ageverification does happen MindGeek will lose over 1/3rd of its viewers...thats how many are actually UNDER 18. and they know this from their own internal audits
Considering MindGeeks other problems I dont think it would be wise for them to enter the age verification arena ...just my two cents of course...

There's too much revenue at stake for them NOT to get involved. Whether MG starts out offering an Age Verification service or just develop one for their own properties they WILL come up with something. Maybe they start with their own AVS then open it up to other sites later on.
As every advertiser knows: the UK is one of the "Big 3" (Canada and the US being the other two) and therefore has some of the world's most valueable traffic. Believe me, no serious business will willingly lose 10% of their business (or more) when it could be prevented.

Exactly. I still think paysites will see a boost because of this situation. Remember, we live in a convenience-driven "I want it now!" world.
