#5 Adult Industry Unchained: The Crypto Shift to Slash Payment Fees

Malaya Ruiz

You know who loves adult websites? 👙 Internet users, of course! 😁 But let’s be real—not everyone is in favor of them, especially not mainstream payment processors. When it comes to traditional payments, adult sites are stuck in economic limbo, which makes dealing with regular banking a hassle and a half. It’s trickier and pricier! 💵🥴

Those in the business are not happy about this, and neither are those who are purchasing their services. C’mon, they’d rather use the money to pay for AI girlfriends. 💄💋

So don’t worry if you’re on that side of the fence because the crypto revolution in adult entertainment has entered the picture. But remember that this is in no way a promotion of anyone or anything, although you might enjoy the little tip-off—AT YOUR OWN RISK. 🤭

Pioneering this revolution is Crass Kitty, the clever mind behind MyPeach.ai, an AI-powered sexting playground. Think of it as a digital dating app but with more virtual spice, thanks to AI. 📳 Normally, users would be flirting with a digital doppelgänger of their favorite OnlyFans star or splurging on some raunchy custom art with their credit cards. 💳 But times are changing, and so are payment methods on adult sites because why not?

Kitty’s got the scoop: if you’re buying crypto with your credit card, get ready to pay a 3-5% fee to payment processors. But if you’re venturing into adult entertainment territory, that fee goes up to a ridiculous 10-15%. 😲 That’s highway robbery! 😤 So Kitty thought it’s clear there’s a strong motivation to go crypto. 💱₿

Here’s how it works on MyPeach.ai. On the front end, customers are using their credit cards to get in on the action. But behind the curtain, they’re actually buying stablecoins and sending them over to the site. It’s actually clever if you think about it because payment processors charge fees for adult content that are practically a membership to a luxury country club! 😵

Adult websites have a bit of a reputation when it comes to chargebacks. It’s basically an annoying game of ‘takebacks’ that no one wants to play. 🤪 Card processors, sensing an opportunity, have slapped higher transaction fees on these sites so business owners are feeling the pinch when it comes to cash flow. What a buzzkill for them, right? 😞

In reality though, Kitty soon realized crypto isn’t a one-size-fits-all miracle solution. As it turns out, new users, especially those without any crypto background, often freak out at the thought of setting up wallets and buying tokens when all they want is to flirt with their sexy AI darlings. 😘 Because of this, Kitty had a lightbulb moment and this is where all the fun begins.

She took a page from OnlyFans’ playbook, betting on the fact that users love personalized experiences and are willing to pay however much for their custom adult content. 🥵 MyPeach.ai became a spicy platform where users can earn PEACH tokens for exchanging steamy texts with AI personas that match their desires. Crypto plus AI = genius. ₿🤖 I guess no matter what business you’re in, if you mix these two, you always win! 🙌

For AI-generated images, tokens are the currency of choice. And if their token stash runs low, a simple credit card swipe gets them back in the game. Thanks to a little stablecoin wizardry! 💫

We’re now living in the future, with platforms out there that make use of AI magic to whip up hyper-realistic nude images and the bonus of paying with cryptocurrency. Back in May, OpenAI started pondering whether it could responsibly toss in some age-appropriate NSFW content through its API and ChatGPT. 🤭

With the adult industry getting its blockchain groove on, we can only speculate what kind of futuristic tech tricks are waiting just around the corner. For those who enjoy this type of fun, it’s a wait-and-see game—the plot twist could be anything and everything. 💋👙

#4 CZ Lifetime Ban: The Crypto Soap Opera’s Latest Episode

CZ Lifetime Ban: The Crypto Soap Opera’s Latest Episode

Grab your popcorn, folks, because Binance has just delivered a plot twist more dramatic than a soap opera marathon. 🎭 That’s right: Changpeng Zhao, better known as CZ, has been hit with a lifetime ban from managing Binance, the very crypto empire he built with his own bare hands. 🚀 But before you start crying into your ledger or tossing your Binance-branded swag, let’s dive into this spicy situation.

The Scoop: Lifetime Ban of CZ

The latest gossip from the crypto grapevine? This lifetime ban is actually part of a plea deal filed on November 21. So, it’s not just Binance saying “not today, buddy.” Instead, it’s a piece of the “remedial measures” Binance agreed to in its plea deal with U.S. authorities. In other words, it’s the corporate equivalent of a timeout for bad behavior—except instead of being sent to your room, CZ is banned from the control room. 🚫👨‍💼

Why the Lifetime Ban?

Let’s be real: banning a founder from managing their own company sounds like something straight out of a sci-fi dystopia. Is this what the future of corporate governance looks like? And what does it say about the state of play in the crypto world where lifetime bans are a “consideration” rather than a strict legal requirement? 🤔

Is CZ’s lifetime ban a creative form of corporate penance? Or is it just an elaborate way to satisfy regulatory whims while still keeping the crypto ship afloat? ⚓

What does this mean for the future of Binance? Can Richard Teng—who, let’s be honest, probably has some pretty big shoes to fill—steer the ship without running into more icebergs? 🛳️

Will other crypto moguls start sweating bullets now? Are lifetime bans going to be the new hot trend in “remedial measures” for those who dare to dance too close to the regulatory flames? 🔥

via GIPHY

CZ Next Moves

CZ’s resignation and lifetime ban come after he played the role of humble pie enthusiast, admitting to “mistakes” and stepping down as CEO over 10 months ago. Now, he’s promised a break, which could mean anything from meditating in a zen garden to starting a new crypto venture under a pseudonym. 🧘‍♂️💡

So, What’s the Takeaway?

This is crypto, where the stakes are high, the drama is eternal, and the rules are ever-evolving. CZ’s ban is just the latest episode in a saga that makes reality TV look like a documentary on paint drying.

#3 Trump’s DeFi Drama: The Crypto Saga Stirring Family Feuds and Sparking Internet Frenzy!

Trump’s DeFi Drama: The Crypto Saga Stirring Family Feuds and Sparking Internet Frenzy!

The Trumps look to be diving straight into a reality show! They have chosen to delve very deep into the wild world of decentralized finance (DeFi) with their new project, World Liberty Financial (WLF). 😃

Now, that shouldn’t be surprising at all since the Trump family is well known for their flair for the dramatic. Hold on, hold on, this time they didn’t get a new hairdo or post a controversial tweet, but they are on news regarding a high-stakes crypto venture that even blockchain enthusiasts are finding hard to believe.😬

Remember when Trump revealed his rocky relationship with cryptocurrencies? He’d always dismiss them with a wave of his hand, calling them “scams” and “bad news.”😏Well, in today’s times he’s practically become a crypto evangelist, promising to make the U.S. a global leader in digital currencies. 😯

Called WLF, it is the Trump family’s latest foray into the digital realm, and it’s already making waves for its curious mix of ambition and drama. Well, hold your breaths, the project is reportedly modeled after Dough Finance, a blockchain app that was hacked earlier this year, resulting in a cool $2 million loss.  Lol!😆 

To add to that, the Trump family’s involvement in WLF is, of course, a spectacle in itself. 🤣 Consider the case of the youngest Trump, 18-year-old Barron, who is being hailed as the project’s “DeFi visionary,” which sounds like a title straight out of a sci-fi novel, won’t you agree? 😛

Hang on, hang on, the elder bros aren’t slacking off! Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. are donning the hat of “Web3 Ambassadors”, with their daddy playing the role of “Chief Crypto Advocate.”🤪

Now, whether or not you want to call it an ambitious venture or a family affair, is up to you! But for sure, the Trump business is nothing short of a superhero comic!😍

Now, what started off as “The DeFiant Ones,” suddenly changes to World Liberty Financial. After all, the Trumps prefer convention!  It’s big on promises it seems with a governance token, WLFI, which, in a twist is both innovative and slightly baffling, and won’t be transferable. 😶

However, it will let holders vote on key decisions, from integrating new blockchains to adding lending markets. 🤔

Amid all this, the females of the Trump family haven’t been left behind at all! The conjecture is that Lara Trump and Tiffany Trump’s X accounts were recently compromised. Honestly, which hacker would want to promote WLF’s new token? Like seriously.😭

Well, someone did, and at the news desk, we’ll be keeping the tab, and bringing you some freshly brewed content! Oh yeah, about Trump – hmm, it’s nothing short of a family saga that has someone stepped into the unpredictable world of DeFi. Just wait and watch! 😁

#2 KamalaCoin on the Horizon? Harris Dabbles in Crypto—Is She Following Trump’s NFT Playbook?

KamalaCoin on the Horizon? Harris Dabbles in Crypto—Is She Following Trump’s NFT Playbook?

Lawrence Damilola

Vice President Kamala Harris is making headlines by stepping into the crypto world—well, sort of. In a surprising twist, with crypto enthusiasts and political pundits buzzing, Harris is linked to accepting cryptocurrency donations. But before you imagine Kamala mining Bitcoin from her basement or day-trading Dogecoin, let’s get the facts straight: it’s not Harris herself, but a Super PAC called Future Forward doing the digital collection. Talk about a plot twist! 🤯

Coinbase CFO Alesia Haas sparked excitement when she mentioned at a conference that Harris’s campaign was “using Coinbase Commerce” to accept crypto donations. This led to speculation that the VP might be setting up her own digital wallet. 🧑‍💻 However, reality quickly reigned in the excitement. It turns out that a spokesperson clarified that the crypto donations are being funneled through Future Forward, the same Super PAC that was a big spender in the 2020 elections for Joe Biden. So, Harris isn’t going full “Crypto Queen” just yet—she’s more like “Crypto Adjacent.” 😅

Still, one has to wonder if this is Harris testing the waters of digital assets or simply a new strategy to attract tech-savvy voters. If Trump can rake in millions with digital trading cards featuring him as a cartoon superhero, why can’t Kamala cash in on the craze? Maybe a line of “Kamala Koin” or “Veep NFTs” is in the future? A Harris-themed NFT collection might include iconic moments like her viral debate zingers or, better yet, a holographic card of her sporting aviators and sipping coffee. 😎☕

Also, can this be the latest episode in “Politicians Try Crypto”? Who knows! What’s clear is that her team has realized the magic of crypto doesn’t stop at Shiba Inu or Dogecoin memes or even NFT apes—it can also fuel a presidential campaign.

The move has definitely stirred the pot, especially among those who see crypto as a fresh angle for political fundraising. If anything, it’s a clever way to attract young, tech-oriented voters who see cryptocurrency as more than just a meme economy. The Super PAC has already raised over $163 million for her campaign. 💰 Could crypto be the magic bullet to win over a new voter base? Or is this a gimmick that could backfire if not handled properly? 🤔

Regardless, Harris is now in the crypto conversation, whether she’s a full believer or just a curious participant. One thing is for sure: politics and cryptocurrency are intertwining in unexpected ways. So, while we may not see KamalaCoin on the market tomorrow, never say never. 🪙 After all, campaigns are constantly evolving in this digital age, and crypto might just be the new frontier for political innovation. 🚀

Who knows? With all the crossovers in politics and crypto, we might soon be voting on the blockchain itself. Hang on to your digital hats because this could get interesting! 🎩

Disclaimer: 🚨 This article is for entertainment purposes only! If you find yourself suddenly inspired to buy a “KamalaCoin” or trade your hard-earned crypto for campaign swag, please consult with your financial advisor first—or at least your most crypto-savvy friend. We take no responsibility if you end up with a digital wallet full of political memes or if you start dreaming of NFT debates featuring cartoon politicians. Read, laugh, and hodl responsibly! 😂📉

#1 Crypto Advocates Demand Blockchain Drama in Presidential Debate

Crypto Advocates Demand Blockchain Drama in Presidential Debate: Because What’s Politics Without a Little Digital Chaos?

In what can only be described as the most epic crossover event of the political and crypto universes, advocates are now pleading for a deep dive into digital assets during the upcoming U.S. presidential debate. 

That’s right—just a few days before the high-stakes face-off between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, the Chamber of Progress has sent a love letter to ABC’s Linsey Davis and David Muir, begging them to bring up crypto. Because nothing says “presidential debate” like discussing whether Bitcoin should be legal tender or just a fancy way to lose all your savings. 🚀📉

The Crypto Call to Action

The Chamber of Progress—who apparently believe that cryptocurrency is the ultimate litmus test for presidential competency—demanded that the debate moderators take a break from the usual policy wonkery to tackle the “burning issue” of cryptocurrency, Thursday. Their argument? Voters need to know whether our future president is going to treat Bitcoin like a golden ticket or an elaborate pyramid scheme. 🤔

Why the Urgency?

Let’s break it down:

Trump’s Crypto Flip-Flop: Once a skeptic, now a self-proclaimed digital asset aficionado, Trump’s recent embrace of crypto has left us all wondering—did he just discover blockchain, or is this a brilliant ploy to corner the NFT market? 🔄🤑

Harris’s Crypto Stance: Meanwhile, Harris has been as cryptic about her crypto stance as Satoshi Nakamoto himself. Will she offer clarity on how she plans to handle digital currencies, or will her response be as opaque as a foggy morning in San Francisco? 🌁💬

Thought-Provoking Questions for Our Political and Crypto Overlords

Will discussing crypto in the debate actually help voters understand the candidates’ positions, or is it just another shiny distraction from more pressing issues? After all, who needs healthcare when you can debate the future of decentralized finance? 🏥💸

Is crypto really the issue that will sway the 2024 election? Or is it just the latest shiny object that advocates hope will distract us from the traditional political circus? 🎪🧐

Could the debate over digital assets reveal a new form of political pandering? Are candidates merely leveraging the crypto craze to capture votes from the tech-savvy and the speculative traders? 🎯📊

What to Expect from the Debate

As the debate looms, we can only imagine the fireworks. Will Trump wax lyrical about his newfound love for Bitcoin, while Harris tries to balance her response between enthusiast and skeptic? And will we, the crypto community, finally get the clarity we’ve been thirsting for, or will we end up with more confusion than a volatile altcoin chart? 📈🤯

To Sum It Up!

The crypto world waits with bated breath for what could be the most entertaining—and baffling—presidential debate yet. Whether we get concrete answers or just more political jargon, one thing’s for sure: the intersection of crypto and politics is more exciting than a bull run. Buckle up, folks. This debate promises to be a wild ride through the highs and lows of digital assets and electoral drama.

If you find yourself debating the merits of blockchain while forgetting to vote, consult a political analyst or a crypto advisor—ideally, one who doesn’t confuse Bitcoin with a “blockchain snack.” 🍿💰

BONUS: Kamala Harris Gets Ripple Bigwig and Crypto Bros Endorsement—But Hold Up, There’s a Catch Bigger Than A Market Crash!

Ripple Bigwig and Crypto Whiz Kids Endorse Kamala—But Hold Up, There’s a Catch Bigger Than a Market Crash!

The latest plot twist in the political thriller known as the 2024 election involves none other than Ripple, the company that brought us XRP—and a whole lot of intrigue involving, well, Kamala Harris!

The Catch That Could Shake Crypto

In a move that would make even the most seasoned blockchain skeptic raise an eyebrow, Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen has joined forces with 88 other high-profile business leaders to endorse Vice President Harris for president. Yes, you heard that right: Harris, the same VP who’s been juggling her duties while the crypto space rolls its eyes at SEC Chair Gary Gensler’s regulatory antics.

This endorsement is like a spicy NFT drop—a blend of excitement, confusion, and a hefty dose of “Wait, what?” Because while Ripple’s move might seem like a bold step into political waters, there’s a catch that even the most seasoned DeFi pro would find perplexing. 😲✨

Ripple’s Unexpected Harris Play

First off, let’s talk about Ripple’s own Brad Garlinghouse, who recently predicted that no matter which presidential candidate wins, Gary Gensler’s reign as SEC chairman is toast. Could this be a strategic play to sweeten the deal for Harris? Or is it just another day in the life of a company caught in a perpetual regulatory headlock? 🤔📉

And what about Gene Sperling, Ripple’s former board member turned Harris campaigner? Is he cashing in his crypto chips for a presidential ticket, or just flexing his networking muscles in a high-stakes game of political poker? 💼💸

Meanwhile, David Plouffe, who previously had ties to Binance and Alchemy Pay, is now in the Harris camp, proving that in the world of crypto politics, allegiances can shift faster than the price of Bitcoin on a volatile Tuesday. 🚀🔄

Harris Allies or Political Pawns?

This endorsement raises some tantalizing questions for the crypto community: Is this a strategic alliance designed to curry favor with a potential future president? Or is it just a case of corporate leaders playing their cards in a high-stakes gamble, hoping that their chosen candidate will clean up the regulatory mess they’re all too familiar with?

So, dear readers, as we ride this rollercoaster of political endorsements and crypto drama, let’s buckle up and enjoy the ride. Because in the world of digital assets and politics, the only certainty is that things will get even more interesting—just don’t ask us to predict what’ll happen next. 😆📊
