I hate to be judgmental, but paying for sex is  Tongue reprehensible.  Take a cold shower.  Get some friends.  Network and find a regular sex partner.

I can't find a hooker to pay in gold either, but that didn't kill the trust in gold Smiley

A gold ring on a girls finger is typically reserved for the ones you don't want to leave.

If you are looking at trends, within the last month or two the number of hookers accepting bitcoin on MyRedBook.com went from 2 to 32.
The biggest growth was in Las Vegas and seems to have occurred around the time of the Bitcoin conference there.

I see you NL...  Grin

If a hooker accepts a whole 1.0 bitcoin, today, for her services, that is kinda expensive.

I would like to assure you that the "hooker point" is probably more important to take seriously than not.
If there is anyone open to a brief Q & A here with me, I would deeply appreciate it and assure you that your time will not be completely wasted.
I am speaking to a large audience in the very near future and seek some clarification on the subject.
This is the hooker factor. It's all about the sex industry and the explosion that this market is partaking.
Anyone ?

xo Thank you in advance for your time xo

Hm. Maybe it's time to really unpeg Bitcoin from the USD and instead get an exchange running where you trade HT (Hooker Time, measured in 10m lease units) for BTC. If it grew large, there would need to be some type of grading system. The Sheldon scale might be appropriate.

Hey, gimme a hooker/whore, I'll be her pimp. You can pay me the bitcoins. No swearing here. But please wait 10 minutes (1 block) for confirmation before you disappear with her. No double spending allowed!

If I'd try to pay a whore with bitcoins, this would result in swearing and cursing, and her pimp would show up and demand fiat.

There are some tech-savvy girls out there who do these kinds of services. All they need to do is state that they accept bitcoin, and they usually have an android phone with them nowadays.

I just posted this on a topic elsewhere, but I wanted to give it a thread of its own as it is about BTC price and utility which are fundamental concerns to us all:

  i cant even get a hooker for btc.

... directly from a provider (without a 3rd party exchange involved)

You obviously don't use hookers.

Realistically, one can only track escort agencies that accept BTC:

(1) Independent hookers are dodgy, on drugs/booze, pathological liars, fly-by-night operators at best...
(And I don't care if they are "nice" and have a flashy web site)...
These flaky girls NEED an Authority Figure to keep them productive.


100% bullshit.  You really think independent folks are more flaky than those who can't stand on their own?  Exactly the opposite is true in general.  More importantly your analysis leaves out the most important part: location.  These things are shaped by legal, historical, and societal factors and change greatly from place to place.  Support and be respectful of independent women.

It appears that Italy might be the first country to have reached "the hooker point".

Via Google Translate:

Quote
With the crisis, it will be that the 'hi-tech advances, will be both things together, the fact is that the world of eros is adapting to the times we live. No checks or cash, old stuff, now you are charged with sexual performance virtual money, the so-called bitcoin. Used by celebrities and entrepreneurs to not be "tracked", are becoming the new currency to launder illicit affairs, and also for the sex "you must not know."

THE TESTIMONY. Confirms it for me Pascal, Roman gigolo. "I was contacted by a lady Swiss - says exclusively to" Sex and Rome "-. During the dinner, including a chat the other, waiting to switch from wine to bed, I discover that she, like me, has invested in and used the bitcoin bubble of March. " Coincidence very welcome by the lady of Lugano. "Let's move on to the hotel - Pascal continues - and did my job of gigolo, she takes her iPad, asks me for my account number and I make a payment." Has paid on its portfolio 10 bitcoin that at present are approximately 1,000 Euros. "At the time I am amazed but then accept thinking that this could represent the future." Not bad for a night ... "I to this type of women never ask a figure - he says a little 'embarrassed - I'll leave it to them, but I must say that with the virtual payment I went pretty well. She then confessed to me that many of her friends are beginning to use this currency for payments. At this point - ends with air manager - I think in the short insert on my site direct payment in bitcoin.

Even women are gearing up, then, but for the moment to demand payment in virtual are mostly men. Sonia, Escort of the Old Town, I confessed: "I had to open my account in bitcoin, nearly one out of ten customers prefer this payment, they feel more confident of not being caught by the IRS. And I'm in it for more than the cash, because they generally pay more and a 20% more to hold off the edge of the exchange rate risk. " Intrigued by these statements, I do a tour on the web, and I find two Portaportese online ads for rendezvous where it is stated: "We accept bitcoin." It was once "We accept food stamps," changing times ...

(2) Escort agencies are often well-established for > 10 years...
They keep the girls in line with Rules or they get fired...
And the Customer (almost always) gets what was paid for.

Isn't there a SlutCoin already? Can it not be adapted for this purpose?
