Porn viewers may not be getting laid but they soon will be getting paid Smart Media Tokens built on the Steem blockchain.
I got a Google Alert today that notifies me of any recently published news containing the word Steemit.
There was an article posted today on ChipIn.com that said;
Penthouse Adopts Blockchain.
I took the click bait and read this story about a new ICO coin called VICE launching Jan. 3, 2018 that will reward viewers for watching, producers for creating, and curators for curating porn.

Could this revenue model shift to a site like NetFlix and monetize viewing movies or mainstream broadcasts?
Imagine NetFlix running on a blockchain generating its own token and instead of charging a subscription it operated on a percentage of the daily tokens generated, the rest being rewarded to the producers and the viewers.
The more movies you watch the more you earn.
Are we headed for a future when couch potatoes can make a full time income sitting on their ass? It sounds too good to be true but the porn industry thinks so and is going for the money shot.
Vice.org says they have the platform ready to go and expect to raise $25-50 million with their launch Jan 3rd. That remains to be seen, but what they do have is a huge audience in the 100's of millions visiting their sites. Imagine if they started getting paid.
I may have to buy a few of those coins before the pump and dump (no pun intended).
