".@h3h3productions messed up. The video was monetised by OmniaMediaMusic. Evidence in source code of original video." "The video was claimed due to the copyrighted content, hence the sudden drop off in ad revenue. Nothing to do with it being demonetised by YT"

So YouTube likely was showing ads for the video, but the revenue wasn't going to the uploader, rather going to http://www.omniamedia.co/

There are a lot of thumbs in this pie.
