News Forum - Porn may open the door to the mainstream for cryptocurrency

[Thaiger]

Cryptocurrency has grown a strong following of hardcore supporters but has yet to gain widespread acceptance and ease of use. But now another hardcore faction might help bridge the gap and open the doors to wider usage: porn. After OnlyFans became the latest website/porn service to see its value and success hanging in the balance of a battle between its users and the powerful banking industry that allows them to collect money, many in the adult industry are looking towards crypto as a viable alternative. Earlier this month, OnlyFans, a site that boomed with Covid-19 as people turned to creating […]

Makes sense... the people pushing cryptocurrencies are the same people pushing and investing in the porn industry... 

A full digital control grid does not mean more freedom... those who think the blockchain technology is a path to freedom are fools...

As morality in any given society decreases, freedom decreases. As morality in any given society, increases, freedom increases. This is a fundamental consequence of the natural law generally understood as Karma.

Industries like using cryptocurrency, as it can be used virtually anonymously as means of payment. Nothing to do with freedom.

And Karma is not a natural law. It is just a spiritual belief. Nothing to do with freedom either.

why people do so difficult about porn? grow up it is just another industry, i am a seo expert and 90% of my work is for ranking adult websites (50% of that is from the UK) i get rarely a seo job for a 'normal' website it is either porn or gambling and guess where the gambling clients come from... i am not interested in porn, but it makes me a lot more money then normal website ranking... i could care less what kind of qwebsite it is unless it is illegal porn..... that i refuse to work with

They buy the GFE, the girls talk to their fans, send them gifts. And the guys think they’re in a “real long distance relationship”

But does it really matter what you think ? Some people shoot wild animals as it makes them happy and fulfills something missing in their lives, some people go overseas as voluntarily workers to help others and provide their selves with an inner warm feeling but does it really matter that some people send ladies money from overseas and think they have a relationship ? Not in my book as doing things that may help others yet primarily gives you some peace of mind is all that matters and perhaps people like yourself who call such people out are yourselves looking for some piece of mind ? Perhaps knocking those that do such things is perhaps  your own fix for achieving that  mental comfort perhaps ?

True crypto currencies are un censorable and permission less. No third party can stop the transaction,

This is the very definition of Freedom

It’s not what I think. It’s what the subscribers think. Some liberal feminazi interviewed subscribers for her YouTube channel, and the subscribers do it because they feel like they’re in a relationship. She literally asked them why do you pay when you can get Porn for free, they stated not me that the OF models talk to them, message them and you can chat with them.  When she confronted them about not meeting the girl in person some stated, not me and not my opinion, it’s as if they’re in a long distance relationship.

I didn’t knock anyone down. You are doing it by misconstruing what I said into something else. I don’t know why you’re hassling me for when I’m just restating what OnlyFans subscribers said

Really ? Your post 46833 gave no reference to "onlyFans subscribers" or even stated you were quoting anything !!

Nice try for laying this on me. 
The fact remains that you are the one who accused me of “knocking people down” when my reply lacks even basic requirements for “knocking people down”. 
 

The only post I see about knocking people down is you for accusing others’ innocuous replies as you say: “knocking people down”

Is that what you do? Misconstrue people’s posts to fit your own narrative? 
 

Also the OF subscribers is implied! Why? Because I was replying to another posts questions: why do they do it (pay for an OF subscription) when they can get it for free!? That’s the obvious part. What’s not obvious is how you got to my post “as knocking people down”

You really think the Banksters are going to allow a bunch of anarcho-capitalists/agorists/off-grid preppers/dark web hackers (because this is eventually what you will be labeled if you are not using the CBDC's) continue to transact out of their control? I don't think so. Their are a myriad of ways they will control your transactions eventually. It will be done through tax law, through terrorist/safety laws, through corporate law etc.

So you don't deny  your post 46833 did not indicate you quoting anybody ? Best if you post a quote to indicate it is such rather than when called out about a particular comment to attempt to attempt to deny that it were your comments. But someone who states something then attempts to blame others deserves to be on my ignore list, bye bye

Nice attempt but failed. 
 

Did you not accuse me of “knocking people down” from a reply: they do it because they feel like theyre in a relationship?

No really how do you get to “knocking people down” from “they do it because they feel like they’re in a relationship”

I really want to know your thought process for accusing people then blaming them for your mistakes

They will certainly try to remove Freedom, their empires depend on controlling the money.

I'm not sure if we can win against them, but I will do my best to support financial freedom in any way that makes sense, and that starts with getting the word out there.

What ever happens, more and more people are beginning to understand how the financial system works, and how people are being screwed by the establishment.

With reports of Walmart and Amazon looking to accept crypto for payments, it would be interesting to see if they flex their Transactional Muscle and insist that their crypto partners not be co-branded with "adult" businesses.

There is much that is wrong or incomplete in this story.

First. there are already decentralized web browsers powered by crypto that are not only censorship-proof but block all third-party ads. I am using Brave. It does not collect personal data or track where you go.

This is good not only for pornography, but for any political content a local government deems too dangerous.

Second, it is untrue that crypto "has yet to gain widespread acceptance." In the first half of 2021, crypto adoption more than doubled worldwide, and the number of crypto ATMs increased 62% (there are now 41 in Thailand).

In Singapore, 66% of residents age 26-45 hold crypto.

And in Thailand, according to the SEC, between 11/20 - 4/21, crypto trading volume rose 600 percent to THB124 billion. So much money is NOT going to banks that the SEC has been trying to quash it with a lot of weird regulations.

Third, it's not that banks are too "prudish." They are constrained by a government which decides what is permitted and what is not. Cryptocurrency provides freedom and privacy. Those are both good things in my book.

And finally, volatility is not an issue, because prices are still denominated in local currency and the wallet payment app makes the conversions automatically.  For retail purchases, it can be as simple as waving your phone at at a QR code.
