Through its official blog, the famous Pornhub website announced that it joins the technological vanguard of accepting memberships that can be paid for through cryptomontas, specifically for now with the Verge crypto.
Following the example of months ago from their other direct competition, Playboy; the team in charge of the famous porn site says they have made an effort to keep up with the community's payment preferences and privacy, accepting Verge as a payment method for services such as Pornhub Premium on their platforms.
Among the reasons given for using Verge and not other cryptocurrency, indicate for now that they are based on the core values of security, anonymity and practicality of Verge.
Verge is a cryptocurrency that is based on anonymity due to the fact that it uses I2P networks with which it makes its transactions impossible to trace and the information such as the IP of its users is kept hidden, which is ideal for the target market of this industry, since if something wants its users is the impossibility of being tracked or exposed.
It reached its highest price on December 23, 2017, when it reached a value of $0.30 and a capitalization of more than $4.3 billion.
Currently, as of April 17, 2018, its value is $0.087 and its capitalization is $1.2 billion.
Cryptocurrency coins are gaining more ground and more and more companies are beginning to accept them because of their potential and to offer a better service to their customers.
Charlie Lee, CEO of Litecoin, didn't miss the opportunity and with a touch of humour hinted to Pornhub that he should start accepting Litecoin.
Headquartered in Montreal, Canada, Pornhub was established in 2007 and has become one of the largest adult websites. According to official figures, they received more than 28 million visits in 2017 with more than 4 million hours of adult videos.
This is not the only adult website to accept this cryptocurrency as it has been confirmed that Brazzers, YouPorn and Reality Kings have announced that they will accept XVG as of today.
