Pornhub Adds Tether Stablecoin as New Crypto Payment Option

[romero121]

This is truly a good news for all the crypto cum porn site users. Now through this they can stay anonymous to certain extent. Does people prefer to use paid porn sites when there are lots and lots of porn sites that provide contents free of cost.

This is something good to the cryptocommunity, but even this will be portrayed as a negative news by people who always look to point out something out of cryptocurrency.

This is a huge opportunity for cryptocurrencies to be more active in these industries. Its a big deal and we might see the adoption that we have longed imagining. 👌

I have mixed feelings about this news. Tether is not a pure cryptocurrency. It is more like a fiat in crypto format. I don't understand why Pornhub is going for the Tether option, when the fact remains that it is very rarely used outside the exchanges. Tether is used to get around the restriction of using fiat cash in cryptocurrency exchanges. It has no other use and it is not suitable for making payments. I am saying this because when you use Tether, someone else is holding the value of those tokens, and you have no means to verify that your Tokens are 100% backed up or not.

surely this is good news because the wider open market for crypto use, don't look at it because it is a porn business, but this is a stepping stone for the crypto world

It was no different when you are accepting paypal as payment as it was giving the possibility to create a payment option in the fiat balance too. As long as it's still traded on the various exchange site and it has high liquidity, and it's not so crucial about whether it was backed by 100% fiat money or not. Even some parties were announcing the audit for the USDT is not so loudly again.

Verge is not successful in being a replacement for paypal, and that's why that site is trying for another option. That site is still searching the excellent alternative for paypal that offers almost the same feature.

Very good news pornhub added tether as a payment option after in 2018 adding Verge and partnering with pumapay, I hope they will add more cryptocurrency payments like BTC and ETH.

This is not the first time that they are adding digital currency to their payment list. In as much as we all are saying that it's beneficiary to the growth of cryptocurrency, let's not forget too that this step will be a good growth to to Pornhub industry too.

Everyday, there are thousands of Pornhub accounts with users credit cards information hacked. It makes no sense paying for $5-$10 fee and losing $1000s of money in your account.

Moreover, watching porn is what most people like do in secret. Thus, they like to be anonymous. The digital currency offers that. So it's a win win situation; they need cryptocurrency more than cryptocurrency needs them.

Verge was the first one to be added. I don't even know if it's still an option to pay with XVG, but it used to be back when Verge's team decided to make a sh*tty move and paid PornHub to promote XVG on vans, on their main logo and add it as a payment option.

Other than giving Verge a quick pump and dump, nothing else good happened to it. Although Tether isn't really a cryptocurrency, it's good imo that they added a stablecoin. This way, volatility is avoided. Hopefully next one is BTC though.

This is really smart move by pornhub they have understood the advantages to accept tron based usdt and this decision is going to be in a positive way finally pornhub fix the mistake they accepted xvg but it was not good decision I guess but accepting stable coin as payments method looks fantastic decision.

[samuraijin]

I don't really like watching porn, still asking questions about the purpose of this thread Pornhub accepts tron-based USDT payments, then can porn site players also be paid with TRX tron or just upgrade members by being able to watch videos that are locked privately? I have never visited this site, if it really has a good effect on Tron prices, I think it's cool that many porn viewers are holding tron

Pornhub, an adult entertainment site is now supporting Tether (USDT) payment option as PayPal stopped servicing its model last 2019.

If they accept bitcoin then it would have been great rather they started accepting a shady coin which is plagued with non transparency and other shits.

We're old enough to understand that this won't bring a negative image to cryptocurrency. In fact, this is actually a great news for us. Bigger companies like pornhub that is open for crypto payments in their business is a way for adoption that we're looking for. If this becomes successful just like how PayPal works before, then we can expect other companies will also try the crypto payment option. What do you think?

To overcome the centralized control the porn industry has to use the crypto market to overcome these ban and that is the case with many business where these services will not accept them.

if told to choose whether to choose paypal or cryptocurrencies as a means of payment, then I prefer crypto. I think Pornhub has been very cleverly thought to have decided not to use paypal services on the payment options on their site. My experience using paypal, I feel this paypal is too much set up, and is very rigid, besides that the mix of U.S financial parties is very dominating in regard to accounts that have high business rating and reputation.
With crypto, everything can be easy and straightforward, it is likely that pornhub will be flooded with orders after the crypto is applied as a payment tool on their site.

Being honest about this matter, I am not having an over reactions with this because as an adult we really demand this certain entertainment for our pleasures. However, if adoption would rather divert the payment systems using crypto; the growing numbers of viewers online is increasing this is a good factor that helps crypto demand rises. Hopefully this attracts a lot of business to use crypto as part of their ways of improvement on payment transactions.

[FairUser]

This is a big step forward for the cryptocurrency market, certainly in the near future, we will have many other websites that will accept cryptocurrency as a payment method. In 2020 there will be a lot of events for this market, and if there are many websites that accept crypto then I believe the market will be pumped as strongly as 2017.

I read this news in 2017 here on the forum (maybe I'm wrong, I will need to look at the message history) Then and now I had only one question - WHY?

maybe the goal is to facilitate payment. that reason is, because some countries in the world are a bit limited to access paypal or credit cards. while crypto, all countries in the world are free to use it, and also anonymous. that's quite positive considering pornhub is an adult site and needs privacy too.

there is a positive side, indeed pornhub is known as a negative site, but this shows that some companies already view crypto as an alternative payment, I like to hear that, even though the site is a porn site, maybe a few months or years there will be other sites besides the site porn that will accept cryptocurrency, hopefully

many online shopping sites that use bitcoin and other crypto payments, well I hope not only on porn sites, but I support anything as long as crypto payment is the second option of fiat currencies I think that's far more enough so that the crypto market continues to grow in future

Why is Porn Hub a negative site This is the most positive site that I have seen) Millions of users can upload their photos and videos that ordinary social networks will not accept))) Violence is condemned. For people who do not want and cannot find the second half, this is the best solution. They will also stick their blockchain ... it's just a fairy tale for ananists and jerkers.
