Anything that increases use-case and adoption is a yes for me and crypto for porn of course offers huge allure for viewers who want anonymity.

So, could be porn the best path for people to understand how Cryptocurrencies could change the world? How is it the best means of exchange values? Porn was responsible for some of the choices in some industries. Some people say [1]Betamex lose the war against VHS because the porn industry has chosen this format.

Yeah porn innovates. I heard they brought VHS mainstream, then DVD, then of course we all know they made Online Streaming a common thing. Maybe they'll add the "mass adoption" touch to the blockchain as well. Fingers crossed!

The porn is industry is very huge, serving various fantasies and drives. It's going to be interesting getting paid in crypto to watch porn. It's also great that this reward systm is going to be hosted on the blockchain. This is going to be plus for cryptocurrencies and and the much needed adoption.

Anonymity is what people love while paying for porn.
And paying with crypto just works. People are paying for porn a lot in the past.
And the availability of payment through crypto would both increase the paid userbase of the site while increasing the adoption, knowledge and use of cryptocurrency.

Tube8 joins Playboy TV and Stormy Daniels in integrating the cryptocurrency to its platform. Both Playboy TV and Daniels announced earlier this year that they would use the token as a reward system for viewers.

The service of Pornhub is amazing. They have 10 seconds of music in the beginning of their clips to warn their customer that they do not use head-phone. I think if they create their token, they'll be successful.

Not actually on blockchain but bongacams is doing a great profit selling it's token (virtual money of the site).
Users tip the models with tokens for a private show or performing an act (in private show as well as public/free one).
So, it's already a working model and when we do it with real blockchain, it would be much easier for viewers to get the tokens.

Most of us must have heard of Tube8 planning to go all blockchain and pay users for waching porn, and they plan to do it through VIT. Anyway what challenges do you think this may face and do you think it is even feasible?

Tube8 is a subsidiary of Pornhub.


BTW, this is the link I saw the article: https://thenextweb.com/hardfork/2018/08/17/pornhub-tube8-blockchain-cryptocurrency/
