SACRAMENTO — Hot Drops, Inc. this week minted their first NFT card featuring CEO Ashley Youdan, better known by her performer alias Kendall Karson.
Hot Drops indicated it wants to "disrupt the adult industry" by empowering content creators to control all aspects of their content and receive fair compensation for their work.
“I am excited to be leading the adult industry into the exciting new world that blockchain and NFT technology allow," Youdan said. "The adult industry is always an early adopter of new technologies and smart contracts are opening the doors to creative content experiences that have not previously been available. This initial card from Hot Drops is just the first step in a series of exciting announcements and developments you’ll be seeing from us in the coming weeks and months, so stay tuned for more!”
Ashley Youdan is a former adult actress, internationally published model, SiriusXM radio host, multiple time business founder, and fundraiser. With her computer science background, experience in the adult industry and network of valuable connections, she has brought together an incredible team to make the adult-only Hot Drops NFT Marketplace a reality.
Hot Drops outlined their roadmap: The Content Creators will have control to release exclusive and limited-edition content on the Hot Drops platform. These NFTs will also create a new income stream for the Content Creators aside from the initial sale. And they will receive a set royalty amount every time the NFT is resold on the secondary market.
The company said fans will be able to make money from owning adult content, too. The Hot Drops Marketplace, which will be added soon, will allow fans to buy and sell these limited-edition items. Hot Drops will be releasing different collectable series of content and cards, further incentivizing fans to buy the entire collection, in order to get unique rewards.
“As a former adult performer, I bring not only a knowledge of the industry but also an understanding of the unique pain points and difficulties that adult content creators face,” said Youdan. “Our team is ready to launch a platform made by adult industry insiders for adult content creators. We are a platform that is specifically built for adult content, without fear of future censorship, shadow-banning, or rug pulling. ... Hot Drops will be there for our content creators, and their fans, forever.”
The Hot Drops website is live at MyHotDrops.com

The NFT is up for auction and will only be available for bidding for a limited amount of time.
