Onlyfans as the Current Standard


OnlyFans has long been a necessary evil in the lives of Adult Content creators. While it has continually failed to support its highest-earning creators, alienate them from the platform, and fail to offer any reasonable level of customer service, it has still been one of the few viable options for creators to offer adult content and (somewhat) safely interact with their fanbase. On the downside, it allows scammy users to get content and then create a chargeback, essentially getting content for free, over and over and over.

There are no protections for Adult Creators who largely drive the platform repeatedly into profits. Onlyfans is happy to take a hefty cut of their earnings in exchange for throwing them under the bus.

New Possibilities for Success and Exploitation


Internet Sex Workers have had enough. Over the last 5 years, several other popular platforms such as Fansly, Loyalfans, and Fanvue (among so many others) have risen into common names of the industry. Many still take large cuts of income and offer little help to Adult Content Creators, or consistently threaten to remove such content from the platform and leave creators on edge about the safety of their earned funds and their content.

Over the last two years, many more Beta platforms have sprung up seeking to do better by the creators who are able to bring in large profits when they are supported and protected. Platforms that attempt to work with creators, are created by creators, or who are looking to balance a fair income for the platform they provide while ensuring the needs of both fans and Creators are met. And then there is the large number of platforms that have sprung up to absolutely decimate sex workers through exploitation by trying to dig their claws into Creators seeking alternatives to the biggest names, or who are newer to the industry.

Traditional Banking Is Destroying The Industry


Worst of all, all of these platforms tend to be partnered with big banks that require traditional treasuries and more and more often refuse to work with websites that act as a Safe Haven for Creators and their work. These banks, while fully happy to exploit working-class people, fund genocide, and/or exploit sex workers for a time, are also more than happy to suddenly jump onto a "moral high ground" and decry that consensual sex work is no longer supportable because it's "bad". Banks continue to make safe practices between consensual, legal sex workers nearly impossible, particularly when the safety of creators in real life cash situations is often at risk. They continually stop supporting safe, sane, and consensual sex work between consenting adults regardless of the profits they end up making on all those transactions that come with it.

As banks decide to shut down their support of sites that cater to or allow adult creators to utilize them, the options for sex workers become fewer and fewer and the stigma against us rises. We have to lie to our banks about what we do. We struggle to get loans for homes or vehicles despite fairly steady income or solid investments. We struggle to prove income for housing. The only answer so far has been to engage in unsafe cash practices, confusing Crypto deals that are often scams, or continue to try bank after bank after payment app and move funds around constantly and exhaustingly while trying to find one place our incomes are safe.

We Finally Have A Solid Solution

MintStars is the NFT & Crypto based solution. An OnlyFans-esque content platform, but improved for both Creators and their fans. Mintstars utilizes Crypto blockchains to ensure safe transactions, while taking care of the swaps from Crypto to currency for Creators. It allows Creators to add content, and also create limited edition content in the form of NFTs that can be sold and resold and resold. Customers who buy the NFTs can enjoy the content, resell it to see some return, and also know that a small percentage of the resell value still goes to benefit the original creator; ensuring Creators continue to earn and profit from their likeness and content, while offering customers flexibility in curating their content collections and changing them as their tastes or desires shift and change.


This NFT-based content can mean big wins for both Creators and Fans, who can invest in NFTs from smaller creators who show promise, and later potentially resell for a profit when that Creator grows bigger and the earlier content is desired and expands in value. It's a little like the stock market; except that instead of supporting big banks and Finance Bros, you're supporting your favorite Creators while trading, purchasing, and selling.

MintStars as the New Standard

MintStars is seeing Creators flock to its platform, and can (but is humble enough not to) boast about its long waitlist of sex workers drooling at the chance to get in on what they've created. Their platform supports and protects creators, values their input, and takes feedback. MintStars has women on its leadership team, and while women overwhelmingly make up the Industry most platforms fail to have women at the helm. MintStars actively engages with its creators on its support Discord and understands that its Adult Creators are the drivers of its platform--- rather than attempting to demean and dismiss them, Creators have been met with warmth, appreciation, and support.


Do you know what brings out the best content from your favorite Creators? When they can happily create the content they love making and fans love to see without having to worry about when the platform they are on is going to screw them over... and not in the way that helps Creators profit. By utilizing the power of the Cryptoverse and making it easy, MintStars is bringing a fresh take to Femdom, Findom, and Adult Content creation so that it's users can spend more time playing and enjoying themselves than trying to navigate all of the backend TOS trickery while losing larger and larger cuts of the money they've rightfully earned.

Wake Up and Embrace MintStars


If your favorite creator hasn't moved to this platform yet, chances are they will be within the next year or two. You can utilize and spend your Crypto or traditional currency safely, easily, and while supporting the entertainers that you deny knowledge of in your daily lives while accessing behind closed doors. Imagine not having to deal with OF and other naughty charges on your bank statements, because it's all worked subtly and easily through a platform with integrity and enjoyment top of mind.
