Pioneering financial liberty and sex positivity through the power of blockchain since 2017. #OurBodiesOurBags 💰
It’s so important that SWers are involved in any type of adult platform! 🩷

The adult creator ecosystem is strongest when workers have a real say in the tools they rely on.

Projects like this show that sex workers are not waiting for permission.

They are building, leading, and shaping the future of the industry.

Whether this specific platform becomes widely adopted is not the main point.

The larger story is that sex workers continue to build alternatives whenever mainstream platforms fail, censor, or financially shut them out.

These innovations push the creator economy forward.

This is significant because most creator platforms were not built by sex workers.

When people outside the industry create the rules, the policies often overlook safety, privacy, autonomy, identity protection, and financial security.

Platforms built from within tend to prioritize these needs.

The goal of the platform is not just to compete with existing ones.

It is focused on giving creators better revenue splits, clearer rules, more control over their work, and a structure that reflects how adult work truly functions when sex workers are involved in leadership.

According to WIRED, Barey built the platform after years of dealing with the issues creators face on mainstream sites.

This includes financial discrimination, high fees, unclear moderation, and sudden policy changes that put creators at risk.

To be clear, safety matters.

But safety tools should be transparent, evidence-based, and designed with creators’ input.

Background checks introduce new risks, so the community has valid questions about how this will be handled.
December 1, 2025 at 8:40 PM
There is also the equity question.

Background checks disproportionately impact people from marginalized communities who are more likely to have encounters with the legal system for reasons that have nothing to do with safety.

A “safety tool” can end up becoming a filter based on systemic bias.

Privacy concerns also change.

A leaked ID selfie is harmful, but a leaked background check report includes old addresses, legal details, and other sensitive information that can be used to stalk, doxx, or intimidate creators.

This is a much bigger pool of data.
December 1, 2025 at 8:40 PM
This raises new risks.

A background check can reveal past arrests, dismissed charges, nonviolent infractions, or outdated legal situations that have nothing to do with a person’s ability to safely create content.

It turns the platform into a gatekeeper of people’s past.

Age verification confirms the following:

“Are you over 18 and is this ID legitimate?”

A background check pulls something else entirely including legal history, address history, court records, and other data that creators did not have to disclose before.
December 1, 2025 at 8:40 PM
Creators already go through intense identity checks.

Uploading IDs, facial scans, age verification, live-scan selfies, and consent confirmations are all part of the process.

Background checks bring in a new layer that works very differently.
