will the "mainstream" pornography business drive the uptake of crypto?
This bloomberg article, "
OnlyFans to Bar Sexually Explicit Videos Starting in October" seems to have caused some consternation in some quarters ( "commercial suicide!", "tumblr all over again!" ) and some excitement and speculation in others that this may be the perfect use case for cyrptocurrency - the decision is based on the refusal of Visa and Mastercard to accept payments from the site
it seems as if Visa and Mastercard are acting as guardians of morality and have previously refused to accept payments for pornhub premium, which drove pornhub to accept
16 different types of cryptocurrency since January ( with a 23% drop in traffic to the site )..
if OnlyFans change their payment model to cryptocurrency then they could continue their current content model - I doubt they will, I suspect they will go under, but you never know...
it strikes me that NFTs would be perfect for
stalkers and serial killers in the making "fans", they could exclusively possess their favourite OnlyFans model or porn "star"
rather than killing them and keeping their head in the freezer as a trophy...
