PornHub

[cosmicbtc]

Porn hub one of the leading porn site has now set crypto currency as a default payment method for there premium subscription.

Honestly this might become a historical moment in cryptocurrency adoption.

Mindgeek, the company that owns Porn hub and many other sites and even it owns Brazzers,so just imagine if all these sites start accepting crypto currency.

Porn really drove the internet into the big deal that it is today, and now we're potentially looking at porn driving another technology along.

It seems like you're late for that news.

It was already published on Coindesk a months ago, and explained it here Why This Sex Industry Executive Loves Bitcoin.

This will surely bring more awareness to people to engage more in crypto, different business industries are now probably notified that how Bitcoin and other cryptos will help when it comes to a payment system without using credit card or any form of payment that reveals your privacy.

It's not exactly old news, because customers at Pornhub can not pay with credit cards anymore, and only options for payment is now with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, because some people abused their service with rape videos, so Visa and Mastercard canceled their service for now.
You can visit their website and check for yourself they only accept crypto now.

So sick and tired of these credit card companies, can't wait for bitcoin to take over! I already see friends paying with bitcoin to visit adult vacation resorts, like https://www.drnights.com

it is only a matter of time

Hehe I can see another issue that will be thrown at bitcoin by critics. There's the undying bitcoin use to buy drugs and other illegal stuffs in the dark web then there's use in illegal online gambling. Next will be bitcoin use to support exploitation of women and child abuse.

The new development is a good one for cryptocurrency at large.  Considering the number of people who use the premium subscription of the site annually, this is going to make a huge impact in the industry.  Even though many adult projects are starting to explore the blockchain technology for their uses.  The likes of exolover are a good example of these.

I find this funny but I guess you're right. The critics will always find one or two things to say just to support their baseless argument.  The fact is, fiat currency can also be use in all these places and why Crypto is better is that the transaction is traceable.

@cosmicbtc, you forgot to add "NSFW" on your title.

I also find this funny yet witty. You are both have a point and I agree with you. Critics, especially those who personally don’t like cryptocurrency would definitely use this breakthrough at the disadvantage of its image, emphasizing that it’s just another instrument meant to serve illegal activities.

It's normal news and not that important, I don't expect billions of dollars to flow into Bitcoin every day just because some people want to watch porn.
That site has some problems with Visa and MasterCard, and these problems will not last forever, so it will accept more currencies in the future.
The good news is with institutional cash flow for cryptocurrencies and not just services that accept payments in amounts as little as $ 100/ year

They had been accepting Bitcoin or crypto payments for a while now and it seems you are late into this news.Adoption is on the move and theres no doubt to that
where several big industries had decide to adopt bitcoin and other alts as well into their payment.The question is, would these porn viewers would tend to make
use of their precious coins on watching porn or getting some premium if they can actually make use of their typical card or even just watching for
free online with lots of them? Its not really worth to be spent imho.

See this news for quite while but the hype regarding on the adoption of pornhub didn't create a long term effect on bitcoins since those news has been gone easily and replace by the other hypes and rotate with this industry, but since we are in good form then its good to list those up as a good adoption made since it could add the confidence of the people who just newly joined here.

Great weapon to attack bitcoin in my country. this issue could well be criticized against an oriental cultural background.
Bitcoin usage policy will become more difficult.

Yes, this is also because many are willing to accept all these pornographic sites well in several countries, so they can encourage the acceptance of cryptocurrency on some of their premium sites, and this will certainly have a good effect on the growth of crypto use in some people who loves the sites and visits them frequently too.

Yeah, it could be but I don't see any issues with that though, bitcoin has and will be used in dark web, we all that and other illegal stuff. But it doesn't mean that bitcoin doesn't are design solely for this purpose. As for the news, of course, we take this as positive. Because the sex industry is a tight knit, and so with Pornhub now accepting bitcoin, it will bring awareness and possible investors for us, win-win situation so I would say that this is a very welcoming news for bitcoin.

This especially surprises me as users now buying illegal tools using bitcoin as high price, I could remember the seasonal movie "Money heists" actors used 60 btc in buying guns and firearms. This indirectly shows me a promotional value in the usage of cryptocurrency making the unknown be aware of his bitcoin transaction works in the industry.

Financial institutions are already buying bitcoin, i doubt that argument will work since those smart money wont jeopardize their investment in BTC. Also with by using the bitcoin's blockchain authorities were able to trackdown a network of child pornography. There are always advantages and disadvantages and bitcoin will here to stay in the long-run even if there are many critics of it.

this was still not new before this thread came , a bitcointalk member created a reply that visa was removed on the hub . at first it was hard to believe but reading this post again in you makes me believe on it now . i was a user of the hub but i dont touch the payment tab long time ago .

because some people abused their service with rape videos

i dont get this . what rape videos ?this is the hub and there are any kinds of sexual contents in there including rape scenes , true or not  .

title is straight to the point lmao but i like this news . people that use hub are now forced to adapt crypto or else they cant enjoy premium features

I understand that the porn industry is very lucrative. This is a great opportunity when everyone wants convenience during a pandemic situation like this. Crypto provides easy access to dark sites. I like this

wow I don't know how come i missed this news but this is a super good news for everyone;

For bitcoiners and other crypto enthusiasts: Porn industry is quite huge, adoption of cryptocurrencies as a default payment system will do very well in propelling adoption of the technology.

For porn viewers and porn companies: This transition will benefit them a lot, in the sense that it will bring about a secure and anonymous interaction and transactions for viewers and some will get introduced to the fascinating technology which they will truly appreciate... In all, it's a wonderful news even though it may come with some negativity.
