In addition the large tastes people who procure porn are definitely the older generation just who clearly no longer care about anonymousness, and definitely will not go through the bother of changing to XVG.

So now people can use their credit card to purchase Verge. They can then use the Verge without signing up with their credit card? That seems pretty huge.
BTW...This is my first post. Seems only fitting it should be porn related!
Well, i think it is not that easy. We talked about the law regulations already. In most countries, you will have to verify your age. But there are other possibilities to do that, then using your credit card. So in the end, yes, you dont have to provide your credit card information. I think this really is pretty huge. People that understand business seems to think the same. It isabout 1100 Satoshis again. Even if it is only my opinion, i think Verge will rise in the next weeks and months higher than average.

Price has already gone past 1100 sats... and 2 million people had signed up since Premium's launch in 2015, and that the demand for subscription-based content is growing with each passing day and now with verge you had anonymity like never before...subscription gonna go through roof... To all those haters keep on hodling your shitcoin and watch this baby fly in coming days...

How come would such companies adapt #verge if only 3% of the universal population is aware of crypto? #verge is a additional privacy coin. The item make sense the porn field would discover use as it.
Well, isnt that exactly the problem of cryptocurrencies right now? Only 3% uses it. Do you know why? Because you cant really do anything with it right now... No idea if you like porn or not. But fact is, now you can pay for porn with it. This is a real use case for cryptocurrency. And this is a good thing. And do you know, how many people watch porns? It seems that exactly these facts, a lot of people here dont understand. Just imagine what will happen, if in a few weeks or months, not 3% of the worlds population uses cryptocurrencies, but maybe 3.5%, 4% or maybe 5%. Can you imagine, what this would mean for the world of cryptocurrencies? And i dont mean only Verge now, i mean the whole cryptocommunity. We need real use cases, every day use cases for cryptocurrencies or cryptocurrencies will not be successful. And this partnership is definitely a huge real use case for cryptocurrencies.

Now i am confused with regards to how it will help to. You have to verse crypto will buy to the INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE. So tutorial this would be on your own tax gain. Wouldn't the item be far more anonymous just to use a charge card?

Pornhub is the best area for VR porn too, so if which will kicks off, is even in an even better place for verge.

and those who think $1 is unrealistic.... mark my words even after reaching $1, XVG would still be undervalued. At $1 MCap would be 13 billion.... which is still half of XRP which is truly a shitty coin not even based on block-chain.....
I hate the word "MOON" but this is what in the offing.... just wait and watch while XVG unseed BCH, XRP & ETH It's hard to make a comparison to XRP. They have all the infrastructure that works in favor of banks. In other words they help an industry facilitate transactions, which want to remain in control of the system. They would help XRP reach high value rather than any other coin.

Ok, took the time to relax a bit and think about the whole story. Let's try to sort it out absolutly unbiased and objective:
- the adoption to the mindgeek payment system isn't too bad. I have hoped for a better decision, but why not. Someone will take take that niche anyway, now its Verge, why not.
- while this partnership will close mostly a lot of doors, it will eventually open some, gambling sites come into my mind immediatly as the next most logical.
- IF paying for memberships on these tube sites will be a deal, we don't know without numbers. On one hand there is sooo much free content around that memberships must have decreased a lot the last decade, on the other side these tube sites have huge traffic, no doubt about it.
- For us users of crypto handling crypto currency is nowadays easy, but even many of use struggle with wallets and whatever not, what's left for the average Joe? This is a little problem while dealing with Crypto for sure.
- The paid advertising campaign is in my opinion a bad deal. But than again, seems its a fact by now, nothing can be changed, and maybe it will indeed help making Verge popular among many. This money, or a big part of it should have been used for further improvement/developement, staff. It's a bad deal that might drive away investors eventually in future. But ok, lets hope at least XVG gains in popularity.
- IF the age verification can be implented somehow so authorities do not see at as eventually bypassing it, it would be good, it's even a must in my opinion. No idea how this can be easy be done so it's more easy for the average Joe than type in his card number and verification code .... We will see how this gets handled, but its important in my opinion.
- Authorities of all kind now. With this deal i'am pretty sure some authorities will closely watch Verge now. I hope all their books are done correctly, someone for sure is coming to check here and there some things.
- Possible Problem? No idea how Verge is handled now by the US SEC and others. After you can pay now with it, does it need some kind of license , is it liable to other financial laws or regulations now? And if yes, can the Verge team deal with it? I'am not from the US, so others that are into law there can answer this maybe?!
- What is the whole deal. Ok, we know Verge is accepted now on the mindgeek network or for now part of it. But what is the deal for Verge beside that? Are they getting commisions for each payment? Is it a trial only or long term? Can Verge be brought to it from "outside" or is it like "B2X" on hitbtc in the meaning you can buy and trade it but neither transfer it in or out. How is/will XVG exchanged/converted there at mindgeek? Does the deal include cam sites too? The list here is endless of important points .....
- Is the Verge Team strong and good enough to handle that additionally work? New staff?
- Are there any Exit terms for mindgeek, in the meaning can they break the contract under given circumstances?
- Is the majority of the Verge community supporting this move? I think its important how the backbone of a given coin reacts to such moves, especially at Verge with the huge younger community. In case the majtority supports it, good of course.
- Volatility, how will this affect the payment gate there at mindgeek. I mean it can be today 10 cent, tomorrow 1 and next day 20, it's not that its like the USDT. Could this be a problem?
There are more points that need some attention, just wrote some that came into my mind.
Having said this, it could be indeed a not that bad deal at all to be honest. BUT its all about how the verge team handles things now, what the exact terms are and how this will get adopted by the porn community at all.
Personally i think its a bad deal with a good chance of eventually improvement to make it a good deal.

People need to obtain over the simple fact that it's porno. Pornhub will probably be worth $3. 6 billion and contains an absolutely enormous user base.

The real deal now is to attract mainstream users to use verge as their prefered payment option and to facilitate the process of acquiring coins as much as possible.

A well-known adult website announced recently that it began accepting Verge (XVG) crypto currency as the official means of payment on the platform. Virtual currency will be used to pay for services, such as Pornhub Premium, as well as a number of others. Against this background, the capitalization of Verge (XVG) increased by $ 250 million.
