Molly White: PSA: Paying for a subscription on the crypto version of OnlyFans using a public blockchain does not give you "true privacy", regardless of what the models there might say.

I generally avoid blockchain enthusiasts but have truly surprised a number of them by pointing out that their immutable public ledger is in fact a trail of evidence trackable to individuals.

And then someone says "but tumblers" and i say that if you have priors, having a bunch of crypto that came directly from a tumbler would probably be considered suspicious enough to warrant further investigation.

Hmm, I wonder if a machine that cleans up the provenance of money would be illegal. A money laundry if you will.

The FBI, with analytics help from Chainalysis, does a good job of tracking Bitcoin addresses, wallets, et al. Immutability OTOH is still in play tho.

Yep. And people do get busted for crimes that happened *years ago because they finally spent the crypto they acquired at the time.

For sure!

Kinda wondering what assurances of privacy/safety the sex workers on the crypto version of OnlyFans have been given, too

(Assuming they're legit, and not just people posting content stolen from other platforms)

I will stick to credit cards, especially when buying porn, but thanks 🤣

I guess they don’t know you can just use a masked card instead of crypto bs lol

whether a masked card is private depends very much on what kind of privacy you're talking about

i wear a mask while using someone else’s card.

That’s a good point. I’m thinking of the stuff like Blur or I guess now Iron Vest. Where you get one time use masked cards.

What if exposure is their kink?
