NFT Marketplace Offering the Word 'Porn' as Tradable Token

LOS ANGELES — An enterprising content creator has minted the word “porn” as an NFT (Non-Fungible Token) and is offering it for sale through the largest marketplace for those tradable assets.

Content creator 33BB36 — who also minted several NFT art pieces and other assets — is listed by leading marketplace OpenSea as the current owner of the word “porn” as a token.

The listing also shows the price fluctuation for ownership of “porn,” showing a steep dip from the asking price in Ethereum (ETH) immediately following the first offering followed by a steady growth in value.

NFTs have long been known as a type of asset in cryptocurrency circles, but during the past few weeks they’ve received much mainstream attention, following some high profile transactions.

Adult performers have already started minting non-fungible (one-of-a-kind) images and placing them for sale through the leading marketplaces.

“I minted a token, and people can bid on it,” performer and tech early adopter Allie Eve Knox told XBIZ yesterday about this novel way to generate income for adult performers. “There will also be residuals and royalties. If I sell it to someone, they can turn around and flip it. If they were to sell it again, I can make a 30% residual.”

The minting of the word “porn” as an NFT brings to mind the legendary controversies around the ownership of the domain “porn.com” during the early days of mass access to the internet in the mid-1990s, a saga retold in the 2019 book “The Player’s Ball.”
