PARIS — Pokmi, a new decentralized adult content platform based on blockchain technology and NFTs (with more than 60000 beta active members), on Tuesday announced an exclusive partnership with reigning AVN Best Leading Actress Maitland Ward to celebrate the launch of the V1 version of its platform (app.pokmi.com).
“This partnership is an incredible opportunity for us to join forces with Maitland to prove that technologies like blockchain and NFTs are an innovative and powerful way to protect youth from content that is not intended for them, to protect the works and income of adult content creators and to guarantee all of this by a currency (the Poken or $PKN”) dedicated to those missions," says Marco Garniga and Nils Lataillade, the co-founders and co-CEOs of Pokmi.
Maitland remarks, “I’m super excited for my new exclusive partnership with Pokmi! Over the last year I have been offered several deals from various NFT companies to join the amazing opportunities in the crypto market space.
"Pokmi is without question leading the way with its platform and company vision. It has a flawless business plan, and was a no-brainer for me to join forces with them. Today is such an exciting day for the launch of its NFT platform. The creative and financial possibilities are endless. Today we celebrate its first official trading listing on the blockchain exchanges and together we intend to deliver exclusive adult content to the global market with a platinum approach to quality and exclusivity."
Pokmi's reasons for being is "to provide a fairer, more transparent and ethical model for content creators by putting them back at the center of the economic equation, to transform the world of adult content through the latest technologies and innovations."
Pokmi also guarantees "a unique, secure and authentic quality content experience through blockchain technology" for all those 18 and over; and "to promote ethical, inclusive and educational values, supported by its partners and ambassadors and leverage AI and machine learning tools to solve systemic problems in its market."
Maitland will upload each month beginning today, the $PKN listing day, posting unique NFTs and unlockable content from her own imagination.
According to Wikipedia, a non-fungible token (NFT) is a unit of data stored on a digital ledger, called a blockchain, that certifies a digital asset to be unique and therefore not interchangeable. NFTs can be used to represent items such as photos, videos, audio, and other types of digital files.
Access to any copy of the original file, however, is not restricted to the buyer of the NFT. While copies of these digital items are available for anyone to obtain, NFTs are tracked on blockchains to provide the owner with a proof of ownership that is separate from copyright. The NFT market value tripled in 2020, reaching more than $250 million. During the first quarter of 2021, NFT sales exceeded $2 billion.
