They got the word Bitcoin into the article, so I suppose it has value.      :)

Here's how they did it, in its entirety: "you’re probably still wondering what Bitcoin is, too."

I think you're ok if you only trade kisses for other acts of physical intimacy. You only run into trouble once fiat exchange gets involved. Also, if you do enough volume you may qualify as an STD transmitter and thus have to register as a sexual services business (SSB).

(But that's just my read and frankly the regs leave a lot to be desired in terms of clarity.)
