Follow the money.

This stat shocked me, I dont know why:

The porn industry is worth approximately $97 billion

The NBA and MLB pull in about $10 billion per year apiece. Porn is 5x both of those combined.

Sort:  

Deep Throat, 1972 film that started so-called Golden Age of Pornography, is alleged to have made 600 million US$ during its initial cinema distribution, which would have made it bigger than Star Wars.

There are claims that such numbers were inflated by organised crime for money laundering purposes, but, on the other hand, porn industry (and sex industry in general) was highly lucrative even when illegal.

That is not surprising. It was always a huge money making industry. The VCR set it on steroids.

Look at drugs (illegal) today...that is also a huge business. Legality means little in terms of size.

That's a lot to take in 😜

And it shows, peoples minds are fried.

Was that from the porn or social media? Hard to tell.

Ha, yeah. There are lots of attacks going on at the same time.

Yeah. I forgot to mention the mainstream media...that will rot ones brain too.

The amount of regions in the world that are still running state and government payed media is just mind-blowing. Germany and Canada are the most troubling to me. Epicenters of the "progressive western Hemispheres" my ass.

The US is being exposed too. We know how much the Biden Admin was controlling Twitter. It is likely the same is true on FB and YT.

It is an epidemic that people need to start seeing through.

That is true, US Government pays for people working at big tech to execute content moderation. In my book that is grave violation of the First Amendment.

It seems the incentive structure to meddle with the free flow of information might be just too damn high.

What are the solutions?

and surprisingly you won't believe CEO of pornhub got away with settlement in court case that was less than $5 million

Charges were sex trafficking..

Everything about it is shocking.

With that type of money rolling in, it is not surprising.

I read they get 2.9 billion pageviews a month.

Leo needs numbers like that. Maybe time for a porn glossary.

I need to get into porn................ lmao

I would say #web3 needs to.

Imagine the boom even just off add revenue LeoPorn venture coming up?

It would be huge..pun intended.

InLeo needs a video uploading ability. Should be next project like Ecency has done. Codes there, the ol copy paste 🤣

Porn's a bigger (money) game. Wanted by more people with more money than sports. Surprised by this stat too.

If we take the totality of all sports around the world, that could tip it that way.

Nevertheless, it does show the size of porn.

Yes of course. Just follow the money.

Small numbers compared to video game industry which is staggering ~250 billion.

That is true. Shows the potential for some of these markets that Hive can tap into.

A lot of money on the line.

Definitely. If and when Web3 gaming gets into the mainstream gaming sector, it could be huge not only for play2earn but for the whole crypto space

Agreed. It is a powerful entry point for many.

They make more porn every day. Sports should cut it out with the seasons and play all year long.

Please don’t start making videos… 😂 I don’t think I want to see that task being mastered, 😂
