It makes sense. Users want anonymity, and not to get their credit cards stolen. And porn sites want to be paid and not have it clawed back.

So why hasn't this taken off? Huh

some sites do, I wont name which for... reasons. Roll Eyes

What reasons? I can't imagine it's against forum policy or anything. Maybe I'm being dense. Smiley

Well.. it matters to some people. Also there are services such as live one-to-one interactive video chat, which are not always available on various torrent sites. And then, some of the pornstars have their own websites, where users pay (normally with their credit cards) to get unique and customized content for their own "usage".

Credit cards >>>>>>>>>>> Bitcoins

as far as porn goes.

I would have said the opposite, without hesitation, while bitcoin is not fully anon is still more anon  than any credit/debit card, unless you are talking about those anon credit card, but many of these are just a plain scam

don't know why but i always feel more confortable to pay with bitcoin, it gives you that sense of freedom and escape from the world


Ill have to agree, I wouldnt want people knowing which porn sites I send my money to, especially my credit card company.

I didn't even know people where still using paid porn sites with the plethora of free streaming websites around Shocked Anyway, using bitcoins saves some weird withdrawel on the credit card bill Wink

was just an example i'm actually watching without paying anything of course , it would be stupid otherwise Cheesy, but i guess someone like to have it at 4k, there are still torrent for those though....

Why pay money to a porn site if you can watch free? Cool
Any video can be downloaded from the torrent.
a part of it is because of copyright laws. and many people can't or don't want to use pirated stuff.

besides there is always membership fees, that you pay to subscribe to a website. one that comes to mind and is kind of popular is brazzers.

I know people who pay for watching porn. There are a lot of people who subscribe to various porn-sites such as Brazzers. It costs only $30 or $40 per year, so it is not a very big amount. And they can watch the latest videos without going through the risky torrent downloads. Also, these videos become available on torrent sites many months after their release.

bitcoin is perfect for porn billing .. except that most of the profits from porn sites come from 'cross-sells' and rebills, where they bill your credit card multiple times and rebill you each month. Can't do that with Bitcoin , so many of the porn merchants probably aren't interested in accepting crypto, since they have a harder time scamming you :-)

Live webcams.

Credit cards are way fucking better than Bitcoins for stuff like this because it is much easier for someone to spend something they haven't earned compared to spending something there will only be 21,000,000 (for now anyways.)

Where Bitcoin does come in handy in the porn world is making payments to models and other people.

Let's say MyFreeCams.com offers to pay their models out in Bitcoin if they choose... that's a HUGE economy boost. 

So in short... credit cards will bring in the incomes and Bitcoins will pay out the contractors. 

I obviously don't have a crystal ball, but I can imagine this will be the way it will lean.

Bitcoin could come in handy when receiving refunds from porn companies. Otherwise they would probably send you a check with "porn site refund" stamped in large letters on the back. Nobody would consider paying a check like that into their account.

I actually didnt think of that, thats actually worse than "brazzers" (or something else) coming up on your credit report.

Even though bitcoin is not fully anonymous at least if you use bitcoin, your credit card details are safe plus you can also avoid unnecessary hidden charges made without your knowledge going to your credit card account.

Credit card is a different scenario, it already loaned you some amount in your card, unlike in Bitcoin you earned and get it, In credit you get the cash without any earnings. Well, as per the security I vote Bitcoin is more secured in means of transactions. Bitcoin really needs governmental department help, they need certain legal bodies who can keep Bitcoin flow seamlessly in the market.

Some of my friends got their credit cards blocked, for making payments to porn sites. I am living in South-east Asia, and that might be one of the reasons. But still, using credit cards for making payments to porn sites can have serious side effects. Sometimes the card information is stolen, and sometimes the personal information is used to blackmail the customer.

Well, some people have morals and respect other people's works and intellectual property. Yet I doubt that people watching pron online are are even considering that making porn movies/photos is not cheap.
Again I doubt that associating bitcoin with porn will do any good to bitcoin image. Bitcoin will be pigeonholed as currency of terrorist, extremists, hackers and porn lovers.
porn industry is a big industry and if it comes into bitcoin it is going to be huge and will not change anything about the fact that bitcoin is like any other currency.
is dollar pigeonholed as a currency of terrorists or porn lovers, .... yet it is being used by all those groups and no one thinks any different.

In fact, one does not think so. It's just propaganda against Bitcoin. People are smart and they understand that weapons and drugs you can buy for a dollar or any other currency.
There are people who unprofitable anonymity and decentralization. These 10 countries or more.
