Adult companies and bitcoin?

[philipma1957]

Pornhub has been accused of filming unconscious women 👩 getting fucked.

It is defined as rape since the woman 👩 can not give consent.

I think trying to use pornhub on the downlow with tor and btc is going to a lot people fucked harder then the unconscious women that were filmed being fucked or raped.

One or two isolated incidents used to target an online video streaming site, which has millions of videos. The video mentioned here was uploaded by one of the users and the allegation is that Pornhub didn't suspended the user and deleted the video soon enough. How can they do that without proper investigation? What going on now is just another witch hunt by radical Christian organizations, who want to ban porn.

This is a good point.

I have another one If I search  "mature milf loves her husband's d... " video    both bing and google will give hundreds of hits .

Many will links show girls close to or under age. How come google and bing are not punished for this.

I saw this new recently and I certainly wouldn't be surprised to see more and more online porn/adult companies starting to accept bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.  I do believe that pornhub all accepts Litecoin, though I would have to double check that ( when I'm not at work lol ).

To answer your question, yes, I do believe that this will help continue the bull run and the mass adoption of bitcoin and cryptocurrency.  The more companies that hop on board the better.

Now many sites and projects are involving in this all because Credit Cards issues are giving some very bad impact things and helping many scammers and thieves for many purposes but this bitcoin and cryptocurrencey is much better and safe way for them so if pornhub is coming then we can hope many more will join and we will have some good adoption through this all in coming years with the help of this all.

Can it bring a bull run? not likely. I suppose you understand that porn industry is a big sector globally but not so big that suppose integration will cause bull run except all of them accept bitcoin at a specific time which I do not think will happen. Porn site using crypto has been things that is expected because of full anonymity that some crypto such as monero offers. Pornhub accepting this might just be coincidence with when VISA has stopped users for using their card on the platform. International bodies has been advocating for ban by credit card usage on porn site for a while now https://www.bbc.com/news/world-52543508 so I believe this will not be only applicable to pornhub alone but all other pornsite so it is more likely they all switch to other payment options such as the crypto

[Hypnosis00]

Not a surprise at all coz this adoption will happen and it already takes place in other big and known companies. Pornhub sectors are also into its adoption, they want their clients and users to maximize their Bitcoin, they are giving such option to make them comfortable.

Can it bring a bull run? not likely.

it won't but that something it drives also people to make use of their Bitcoin and could also add demand on Bitcoin. Price could possibly uplift but that is not enough to make hypes.

[tabas]

They will. It's a known and huge company. If other companies which are in the industry would also have problems with Visa, Mastercard and any other processor in the same field.
They have no option but to integrate their service with bitcoin and altcoins payment.

[Shasha80]

I am sure VISA and Mastercard will regret their decision to stop service payments on the Pornhub website. Because as we know Pornhub
as an adult company that has a large number of customers, it will provide enormous benefits too. Therefore, the payment platforms in
collaboration with Pornhub will definitely get huge profits. Now Pornhub prefers Bitcoin as a payment method, at least it will have an effect
on the price of Bitcoin. I believe one of the reasons the bullrun this year, Pornhub contributed to the increase in the price of Bitcoin.

[Astvile]

Pornhub may contribute in increasing bitcoin awareness and adaption since more and more people will see the name bitcoin in the payment section and for sure some of them will be curious about it. Look at what happened to XVG price when they added it to their website for example.

I am sure VISA and Mastercard will regret their decision to stop service payments on the Pornhub website.

There is a valid reason on why did Visa and Mastercard cancelled they contract with Pornhub, it is about the accusation on pornhub about some of their videos. Pornhub is indeed one of the biggest adult website right now but I think it is not a big loss for Visa and Mastercard there are larger companies that they have partnership with.

[Sithara007]

Visa and Mastercard doesn't care much about businesses such as Pornhub, because even if they refuse to provide services to Pornhub it will have a minimal impact on their revenues. For them, it is more beneficial to take a moral highground rather than to provide their services to porn sites. Bitcoin should make use of this opportunity to get more acceptable. My only concern is regarding the transaction fees.

[michellee]

If Visa and Mastercard stop their contract with the pornhub, it could reduce their income from the porn industries because the porn industries give a lot of money to that company. And if bitcoin can integrate into their system, I think the pornhub can attract more customer who uses bitcoin, and they can subscribe their services using bitcoin. It will give bitcoin more chance to grow more in the future, and people from the porn industries will also know about bitcoin and use it.

[stompix]

I am sure VISA and Mastercard will regret their decision to stop service payments on the Pornhub website. Because as we know Pornhub
as an adult company that has a large number of customers, it will provide enormous benefits too.

And all those customers were paying with credit cards issued by VISA and MasterCard.
Do you think that people will switch to paying with bitcoin or they will switch and start paying for another website?
If we make a poll on this forum you will see that bitcoin owners have a tendency to not spend, most of them either trade or hold, so no, if their plan is living on bitcoin and other crypto transactions they will close shop in months.

I wonder if from the twenty or so people here claiming bitcoin would increase the customer base, is anyone willing to pay with BTC for porn? Doubt it!

Look at what happened to XVG price when they added it to their website for example.

And look at the price now...

[dizzy1996]

Let's start with the fact that we have been in a bullish trend for a long time, and if we talk about the introduction of bitcoin as a payment in the field of porn, then this of course can cause even more excitement for bitcoin, since many porn companies are interested in such a form of payment as bitcoin as it can still provide greater anonymity for users of similar sites and platforms

[adzino]

Regarding the recent update of pornhub. That demands users not to re-upload porn and left some users and investors checking which side of the adult sites will be profitable. VISA and Mastercard stopped their contract with porn hub for reasons I don't know much about. But recently Pornhub integrated bitcoin as their payment method. https://ibb.co/fNCL98R and I ask it could be sooner or later until other porn sites or companies take steps like pornhub did. What do you think will happen to cryptocurrency? this can bring a bull run into the market?

I have read somewhere it all started last year when a video of a minor that was posted in pornhub. The minor went missing for months and someone eventually found out the video and informed it to their parents. Its not only this. There seems to be claims of abusive and rape videos that has millions of views. VISA and mastercard has perfect reason to not  support platforms like pornhub where they don't take any responsibility. I remember reading today that they started removing like most of the contents from their site.
Feels disgusting to see how some people thinks that this is a joke though. And no, pornhub accepting crypto won't make a new bull run.

[Latviand]

They will. It's a known and huge company. If other companies which are in the industry would also have problems with Visa, Mastercard and any other processor in the same field.
They have no option but to integrate their service with bitcoin and altcoins payment.

Before these big companies adopted bitcoin, probably they have doubts or questions in there mind before they engaged to it.

Courage is what we need, I think that those companies are just taking some time to think, explore, and study how bitcoin will help their business grow more.

Maybe that's the key why these big companies are adopting bitcoin this year 2020, they see that during these times, bitcoin is becoming popular and its price is having some progress. Visa, Mastercard, Paypal, are some examples that bitcoin is really good to use in that platform.

[plvbob0070]

With that issue with VISA and MasterCard, Bitcoin can also be a good alternative payment method in pornhub. And since we are seeing news about giant companies adopting bitcoin, then there is a higher possibility that other porn sites and companies in this industry will also adopt bitcoin. The good thing that will happen once we saw more companies accepting bitcoin payments is that it will help bitcoin to get more recognized for mass adoption.

[AicecreaME]

Bitcoin gives you more privacy than VISA in my opinion. VISA has your personal information so they know what you're doing to earn money, while it is the complete opposite of Bitcoin. Bitcoin wouldn't require anything but a device and internet for you to create a non-custodial wallet for your Bitcoin's safety, and it's much less hassle.

If you're doing adult videos secretly, then switching to Bitcoin as the pornhub response is the best way to give assurance to their models that their privacy is in the good hands, tho it would still depends on how they are going to use it.

I bump into thread about Spotify accepting cryptocurrency I think. This was from the CEO of binance https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1334712918265352194 well let's hope that more and more companies will start accepting cryptocurrency.

for adult industry problems doing transactions with crypto I don't think it's a problem. because btc does not have a legal entity and that is the decision of the industry. even with the large number of adult site viewers it seems possible to introduce much more bitcoin to people.

[Xinarae*]

With the introduction of Bitcoin through Visa and MasterCard it's use as a payment system will become much easier and companies will be able to transact very easily. Many people do not use Bitcoin directly for cash conversion so MasterCard will not have any hassle for legal transactions in all countries. Adult companies will be able to improve their organization from before. Various companies will be associated with them and will increase the use of Bitcoin by signing agreements with many large companies.

[Yatsan]

Bitcoin being used by people as a payment option even with this kind of situation of using it on adult companies or pornsites like Pornhub can really lead to mass adaption of using Bitcoin since with the issue that they have with Visa, the happening will push through adult companies to find another way through on how they can be able to continue their works even their partner payment system is not present. But even such mass adaption will be brought up due to reason that many users or subscribers of adult companies will flood to use Bitcoin as a payment option, still there is no guarantee that it will push Bitcoin into a bull run.
