Porn Will Be Bitcoin's Killer App

An anonymous reader writes "In December, porn.com started accepting Bitcoin for its premium services, and the virtual currency quickly came to account for 10 percent of sales. At the start of January, a post on Reddit's Bitcoin subforum boosted the figure to 50 percent, before settling down to about 25 percent. The tremendous interest has led David Kay, the marketing director at porn.com's parent company Sagan, to talk very positively about the virtual currency: 'I definitely believe that porn will be Bitcoin's killer app,' he told The Guardian. 'Fast, private and confidential payments.'"

    Can this stupid Ponzi scheme just crash and burn NOW so we stop seeing all the Slashvertisment for it?

    Fuck Bitcoin.
    Fuck "cryptocurrency" in general.

    It's a damn pipe dream (something for nothing), and we'll all be better off when people wise the fuck up.
