Pornhub now accepts a cryptocurrency you've never heard of
PornHub now accepts an open source blockchain-based payment solution called PumaPay.
Developed by Cyprus-based blockchain company Decentralized Vision, PumaPay offers a "PullPayment protocol," which it says allows for transactions that have never been possible on the blockchain until now. That includes recurring payments and pay-per-use transactions.
"PumaPay's technological solution, the PullPayment protocol, reverses the mechanics of a transaction, enabling merchants to 'pull' crypto funds from their customers' account," PumaPay CEO Yoav Dror explained in a statement. "With PumaPay, merchants avoid the drawbacks of the current banking systems, such as high transaction costs, the insecurity of chargebacks (reverse transactions) and associated fines, and the lack of customer anonymity."
In other words, with PumaPay, you can set up a recurring Pornhub Premium payment to ensure you'll never lose access to the HD, on-demand porn streaming service.

Besides PumaPay, Pornhub's list of accepted cryptocurrencies also includes Verge, Tron, and ZenCash.
"As one of the most viewed websites in the world with over 90 million daily visitors, it is our duty to stay at the forefront of innovation and ensure the privacy of our users," Pornhub VP Corey Price said in a statement. "As decentralized payment systems continue to grow in popularity, cryptocurrencies are especially viable in the adult entertainment industry because they incorporate more anonymity tools than traditional tender."
Meanwhile, Pornhub recently started offering a free VPN service so you can keep your porn-browsing activities private. The service, VPNhub, is available on iOS and Android. Last year, Pornhub officially switched to HTTPS, so you can access the site over an encrypted channel.
