the question of porn

in #dporn5 years ago (edited)

Porn is big business

this is a given, and everyone knows that there is lots of money going around in the adult industry. Most people also know that there is a lot of shady stuff going around as well. So a little more transparency and openness would be a good thing instead of pretending it does not exist and playing the puritan.

recently we had the community of Dporn setting up the velvet couch on steem as well (or cumming back if you will)

Their front end can be found on https://www.dporn.co
The token is called PORN and it runs through the account on steem called @dporn
now today on 09/08/2019 the porn token is worth 0.2 steem and most trending porn posts make roughly 100 Porn. which is about 20 steem which at the current price is 20x0.2 = 4 dollars.
This is nothing much right now as most tokens on the @steem-engine are kind of alt tokens of an alt token (steem)

The question now is if the "performers" are screwing for their future or are screwing their future by selling.

But the whole point I am getting at is that this might be a golden opportunity for this new platform.

if you just read throught the followig article on medium
https://onezero.medium.com/the-future-of-porn-is-on-indie-social-media-5f8a2dffbe3

you can see that there is also a lot of demonitisation going on and that adult performers are shunned from traditional social media. This is where the semi-decentralised models running on blockchains like Steem come into their strength.
The big advantage here is that there are no major fee structures for the performers to pay. They get the votes from the fans and can also interact with them as well by giving back.

So no need to sit there and take it. These adult stars or aspiring amateurs do not need to swallow everything, they can come here and start on their own building a nice following and be the first wave that is taking advantage of still getting cheap porn or even free porn...

And who does not like free porn???

I have my tokens and am not being jerked around, I am keeping them...

Sort:  

I'm not sure if ladybug porn is allowed here...

as long as its bug on but its fine ( i think)

Thanks for this interesting article, @felander!
I don't see why an established star in the adult industry would even bother with social media, since they are already getting paid hard dollars (or whatever fiat) for their work.
For up-and-coming / aspiring performers, or those who want to be, it's a different story. I can imagine the insane competition and shark infested waters, so for them Dporn could be a viable alternative. But it all depends on a number of things.
At this point the whole platform is so young that literally anything could happen. But over the last week or so the value of the token has doubled, which is impressive. Still, the factors are numerous, having to do with the Dporn community, the price of the token, as well as Steem, and the entire cryptoshere. Though it's pretty hard to make any estimates, I've got my PORN all staked, just in case things do go as we want.

yea, I am powering up all I get as well now :-)

It's only a matter of time before the monsoon of sex workers navigate to Steem and dPorn.

After all, I'm here.

get your colleagues over here and get them involved. Because the people go where the action is and then more action follows

this post is swimming in puns!

you drove straight onto my point there... even though that might not have been your intention...

Good write-up. Thanks for the mention.

Very nice shot from nature!

Good point about the economics. My guess is the stars have other more lucrative methods for earning income unless it's just a hobby or whatever. I don't know anyone who will admit to paying for porn and even worse, the blockchain is forever so even free upvotes are um kinda difficult to hide.

Although now I can't help but wonder who has an alt account specifically for liking and loving and making porn?

Well, Im not hiding my main account here. I assume everyone is here of their own free will and that is the most important thing
