PayPal stops payouts to models on Pornhub

Bitcoin’s use case for this is limited. If I were to purchase a product or service that might be subject to deplatforming, it’d better be anonymous, or I risk facing the social sanctions instead. “Amezarak’s bitcoin address sent 10BTC to a sex worker, fire him” is not a much better situation.

You can have more than one Nano address - including one kept for adult purposes.

That's why you don't use a shitcoin, you use Monero.

JFC, this tribalism in the cryptocurrency space is harming adoption. "Shitcoin"? Please grow up..

Before you criticize me for calling a dangerously flawed currency a shitcoin, you should criticize those who use "bitcoin" and "cryptocurrency" interchangeably. Bitcoin was fine back in the day but is terribly flawed in 2019. Are the fanboys never going to move beyond this?

I heard sex workers actually do use Monero when they use crypto (not BTC). It's funny how the supposedly bad UX doesn't matter when there's a compelling reason to use it.

That's really interesting.
