    Last one hour volume on binance alone - 15000 BTCs!!!! This baby is going 1500 tomorrow!


    Whether you think this is a good move or a bad move, you have to take into account several things:

    1. Verge is now partnered with MindGeek. If you don't understand the significance of that, please go to their site here: https://www.mindgeek.com/ and read up on who and what they are and how they effect the industry.

    2. This was a business decision, not a moral one.

    3. Crypto was designed just for this kind of thing and privacy coins are targeted specifically for this kind of use.

    4. Moral judgements aside, millions of people spend money on porn. If you don't like that, sell out now.

    5. It doesn't matter what traditional credit suppliers do, this is crypto and crypto has always marched to the beat of a different drummer.

    Stay or leave, totally your choice but don't think others will follow you if they don't agree with you...
     

    Your POV (beginning to use some porn terms, should be fashion right now, too) makes indeed sense dude. At least it is argumented

    Just let me add that this partnership wouldn't be too bad at all IF there haven't been used some 5+ Million Dollars for it.
    Lets even forget for a second that its porn, without that mega useless hype XVG would NOW go pump extremely. Mostly much higher than it went while the hype was on. Just from a marketing POV this was bad managed in my opionion.

    We are for sure aware that a lot of investors and believers are dissapointed, no matter if this move turns out good or bad. There was no need for that bit false leading announcement made, and this leaves a bad taste at a not so small number of XVG believers.

    While you have a point with having Verge accepted as a payment method on these pornsites, have in mind it's not like 20 years ago where pornsites have been the gold mines of interent. Since the coming of TGP and later Tubes direct porn income went down the hill. This is compensated eventually by cam sites and most be adverts, such the Verge has paid it seems. Seriously, while these tube sites have a huge number of visitors (the nature of free content) i doubt they have a huge paid membership base at all.

    Time will show how good/bad this move is. And as you said, if someone does not agree to a given statement or post, everybody is free to think, buy, sell, hold, dumb, pump, whatever on his own discretion, easy as that.
