I was actually really shocked to see this forum still so active.

In 2012-2013 there was a lot of talk about bitcoin (and I suppose blockchain in general) being used for improvements and optimization in the adult industry. Other than just straight payments (which ManyVids, Eros, etc) use, I haven't seen any real advances trickle down into the industry.

I dont find this suprising since this forum is really good/well made and it will be really hard for any competition.

What improvements and optimization in the adult industry? I mean no one created and market widely accepted ANY other application of blockchain except Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is blockchain and in same time buzz word people use and have no clue what that actually means for real world usage.

What is the point you are trying to hammer home here? I do not argue your points on bitcoin being the superior leader in blockchain technology and implementation. I was admiring that I had not participated or viewed this forum in 7+ years and to come back and find it still active and vibrant is impressive. You would be hard pressed to find the same in forums dedicated to MANY other aspects of society popularized in 2013.

The adult industry is an ENTIRELY different animal now than it was then. Technological and platform changes, the rise of independent performers as sovereign talent apart from studios. OnlyFans, MayVids. Even Pornhub is an entirely different place than it was in 2013. This place seems, to me at least, to me pretty much the same, and I say that in very positive manner. It was nice to come back 3/4 of a decade later, and just make a post and get relevant answers immediately.

What I have not seen, that would be useful, is any blockchain identity or reputation systems being implemented in the adult space. That would be massively valuable to both sides of the market. I hope to find projects that are at least tangentially working on that
