Pornhub celebrated partnership with Verge (XVG)

in #crypto6 years ago (edited)


The new partnership between Verge and PornHub, yesterday on the streets of New York and Silicon Valley, here is how the PornHub spread cheers. They headed to Wall Street, which is the heart of the financial district to announce and celebrate the merger with the most secure and anonymous cryptocurrency on the market, claimed the brand Ambassador of PornHub – Aria accompanied by few other stars from their team.

PORNHUB
Pornhub is a pornographic video sharing website and the largest pornography site on the Internet. Pornhub was launched in Montreal, providing professional and amateur photography since 2007

Pornhub has started accepting cryptocurrency as a payment option, the company announced . The site now accepts Verge cryptocurrency (no relation to The Verge), a rebranded version of Dogecoindark, which split off from the original meme coin, Dogecoin, in 2014. Now, users can pay for any Pornhub features, including a Premium subscription, using Verge cryptocurrency. Pornhub’s adult sister sites, Brazzers and Nutaku, also accept Verge cryptocurrency now

It was a huge success with the team passing on 1000’s and 1000’s of real Verge coins. They have gained popularity and support quickly and their prices have shot up by 10% in the past hours

Verge cryptocurrency is anonymity-focused, which is why Pornhub executives say they chose it over other potential partners. It should be noted that anyone can view Verge cryptocurrency transactions through its public ledger, but it uses the anonymity tool Tor and an anonymous network layer I2P to hide specific transactions’ IP addresses and locations. Since public ledgers often have their downfalls in protecting anonymity, users also choose to hide on Verge cryptocurrency’s private ledger.

Corey Price, VP at Pornhub, tells The Verge that cryptocurrency offers “convenience and security.” It’s a dubious statement, considering most digital coins have high transaction fees and volatile prices that can be a hassle for users. Companies like Valve and Stripe have ended their cryptocurrency support for those very reasons. Stripe has even gone as far as adding cryptocurrency to its prohibited businesses list.

Price says-:
“WE’VE BEEN LOOKING AT CRYPTO FOR QUITE SOME TIME”

Verge cryptocurrency has been pretty volatile, like other popular digital coins. Last December, when most digital currencies were on the rise, Verge cryptocurrency hit nearly $0.22 per coin but has since dropped back down. On the heels of this announcement today, it rose to about 10 cents per coin, which is still low compared to more popular digital currencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
