The world's largest adult platform shifts to encryption payments, triggering industry transformation and reflection.

The membership payment policy of the world's largest adult content platform has recently undergone significant changes. The platform currently only accepts Crypto Assets as a payment method for paid memberships.

This change stems from a recent article published by The New York Times, which pointed out the existence of a large number of adult videos uploaded without the consent of the parties involved on the platform. This has sparked widespread social attention and discussion. Under public pressure, two major payment service providers announced the suspension of settlement services for the platform and initiated investigations into the relevant situation.

According to the platform's report in 2019, its annual traffic reached 42 billion visits, with an average of 80,000 visits per minute. Other data shows that the platform ranks 10th in global website traffic.

This event highlights the importance of content review and user privacy protection, while also reflecting the potential of Crypto Assets as an alternative payment method. As traditional payment channels tighten, Crypto Assets may play a greater role in certain specific areas.

However, this shift in payment methods has also brought new challenges. The platform needs to consider how to ensure the compliance of payments and how to deal with the risks associated with the volatility of Crypto Assets. For users, using Crypto Assets for payments may increase a certain level of complexity.

This change may have far-reaching effects on the adult content industry, prompting more platforms to reassess their content policies and payment strategies. At the same time, it also provides a noteworthy case for the application of Crypto Assets in broader fields.
