OnlyFans provides the server space and processing. Content Creators do their thing and put out content. "Fans" pay for said content/interaction and both the content creator and platform take their cuts.

Apparently the “processing” part is the problem, credit card companies I guess charge more or something when porn is involved.

They should just be like all the local restaurants around me and put up sympathy notes at the checkout screen then... People seem to eat up non-corporations complaining about card processing fees, ha ha...
 
Of course someone will create a new platform that will allow the “sexually explicit content” and OnlyFans will be left hanging out with MySpace.

I'm sure a replacement is already in the works, especially with how porn, in general, loves to adopt to new tech when it comes to distributing their product.

Only Fans is dumping all of their "Explicit adult content" on Oct. 1...

Guessing that since it's just a route for content creators to post stuff, they are probably facing questions about the "legality" of some of the content.

I guess it started up originally as something similar to what CAMEO is (you pay $ for celebrities to record a personalized greeting I.E. Happy B-day/Anniversary/Etc.) and other interactions with your fanbase, but that quickly went off the rails and became what it is.

I would assume the amount of refunds/fraud reported to CC companies is much higher when porn sites are involved.

You know there are thousands of people who purchase a subscription on OnlyFans or other porn sites only to call the CC companies claiming they were hacked or it wasn't them.

As pointed out, the banks/credit card companies are the bottleneck.

Unless the next site actually has a bank/credit card service in their back pocket that can reduce the "fraud," these Patreon/OnlyFans users just going to keep chasing the newest platform.
 
Every once in a while when on my phone I s a USCHO story line feed for the time Tyler Hirsch bull-rushed the net at the end of a game what - 15 years ago? Weird ha.

Can a CEO short his own company stock?

Legally, I don't think so. That's got to fall under breaching fiduciary obligations to the corporation.

Edit; Well, maybe. You'd have to disclose it, but maybe that's totally legal then. So that's what I'm going with. I have no idea, but if a CEO did it would need to be disclosed.

What's the SEC reporting form (Form 4?) when top execs trade their own company? You can see what they're up to ... after. :-/
