I've taken care of this weeks payments, they're on your accounts.

I've been taking care of the payment for this week, it's on your accounts.

I've been handling the payouts for today, they're on your accounts.

Payments this week have been sent by me for a change.

Sounds like your problem is with Bitcoin, not any single site.
"invalid" is what the blockchain explorer displays, so you should take your issue up with them.

Looks to me like you double-spent the funds (might have been a RBF given the confirmed transactions were broadcasted later and has higher fees).
Anyway, the transaction is unconfirmed and never arrived because you used the same inputs in a confirmed transaction that has been credited to your account.

Here's the two transactions:

Both those double-spending transactions that confirmed show up in your deposit history, they use the same inputs you used before in the unconfirmed transactions, which is why the earlier ones will never confirm and can be safely discarded.
No money was taken from you, all confirmed deposits were credited.

There's still some remaining, and they will be dropped occasionally in chat, so check in on New Years Eve and New Years Day if you want to grab some.

https://www.sexlikereal.com/ (yeah, NSFW, doh) is an accumulator site that focuses on VR content and takes BTC and even LN-BTC as payment.
No clue about the premium you'll pay by getting content there via buying it directly from the studios, but it's worth a look / comparison.

Just a quick headsup that after todays payment, our rates have been adjusted, the new rates are:
Legendary member spots: $75 per week
Hero member spots: $65 per week
Bonus rates are unchanged and stay at $40 every 4th round for the avatar and $10 every 4th round for the personal test.

Given that the bounty is provided by the site, it's fair for the site to decide how to set up the rules for said bounty.
There are valid arguments for doing it the way you propose, but there are just as many (if not more convincing) arguments to do it the way it is right now.

However, the thing that is discussed here is not a change of the bounty rules, but semantics about the "real winner" with the current rules in place.
And after all, Shahista won it, claimed it, and everything said before about there being "no real winner" was pointless anyway.
