This proposal carries hazards and other risks that no seems to have
mentioned, let alone considered:

Who will be responsible for global legal and tax-reporting compliance?

If no one, then who is willing to take the fall for violating
the various and sundry tax laws?

Who else is willing to have tax authorities pursue them for failing to
report income?

Who wants to be identified as a tor user, let alone a relay operator?

Who wants to be deemed part of a criminal organization? 

Compensating tor operators turns tor into a commercial business. Who
will obtain the various licenses, incorporation papers, tax
registrations, et cetera, et cetera, ad nauseum, for operating tor
around the world?

Things must be considered when discussing money.

Seriously.
