Hey folks, I thought I'd bring up the topic of cryptocurrency, as it's something that interests me, and I think could help both providers and clients. Especially now with all the online services, and the recent thread about why some clients don't want to use them, re payments. Be warned this is a long post, a lot of stuff in it. If this is way more text than you expected, time to stop now. If not, allons y! TL;DR Why would I want to do this? - it's a way to instantly transfer something of value to another person somewhat anonymously - it can be easily converted into real money in a bank account - there is also a risk involved due to the volatility. If you hold on to the crypto for too long before converting it to fiat, the price could go down and you could lose value. Conversely if the price goes up, you could gain value The too long version: I'm sure by now everyone has at least heard of bitcoin. It's the big dog of crypto, was the first real implementation of it, and definitely the most lucrative. A lot of people have also probably heard that it's only used for evil, that it's really shady, and very difficult to deal with. Hopefully I can help dispel some of those thoughts. So what is it really? It's a currency that is not centrally controlled. And what does that mean? Well, unlike fiat currency, such as Canadian dollars, there is no central authority that governs the making, distribution, value Etc. Essentially bitcoin is controlled by a network of computers that collectively keep track of all transactions. This network also issues new bitcoins for participating in the network. There is a hard limit of 21 million bitcoins that can ever exist. This is a control put in place by the mysterious person(s) who created it in the first place. Other cryptocurrencies are done in a similar manner, while some are less distributed. So that's a rough non-techy overview of the technical side of it, now let's talk about what you can do with it. When you get right down to it, it's money. It's something that you can trade for other things. Not quite as easily as you can with fiat money, but that's the long and short of it. You can exchange it for fiat currency via a third party. As I write this, a single bitcoin is worth over $9400 USD (13000 CAD). You can buy/send/receive partial bitcoins. It's value is very volatile, especially right now. So you could buy some bitcoin at 9400 USD and tomorrow it could be worth $8000 USD or $10000 USD. It's hard to predict. Right now there's a high probability the value will continue to increase over the short term because of an event coming up in the next few days that makes it about twice as hard to get as it is right now. More or less. But I won't really get into that. So back to why I'm posting this and how it can help this industry. Right now, exchanging fiat currency with a provider other than in person handing over of physical money is fraught with issues. Etransfers are easily traceable. Using a CC is the same. Ditto PayPal. Some providers will accept a gift card of some sort, which is somewhat less traceable, but means you are basically trading money for something else as payment. So why not use crypto? I've mostly talked about bitcoin, but there are multiple other types of cryptocurrencies out there. If providers were willing to accept a cryptocurrency as payment, the transaction can be completed online fairly anonymously. That's not to say it's not traceable, it completely is, but it leaves a different trail than most fiat based transfers. Plus there are ways to make them more anonymous, but that's a whole other story. Now, down to the process. It takes a bit to get setup initially, but once setup, transactions are pretty easy. It's pretty similar to signing up with a bank to open an account. Step 1 - you need to register with an exchange that conducts business with Canadians. I'd recommend Kraken. They've been around awhile and are serious about security. There are others as well. This involves creating an account on the exchange, using an email address (go protonmail!) And setting up your account with your real information and bank account info. This all gets verified and you need to provide copies of documents to do so. It's part of the anti money laundering rules that exchanges operate under. Step 2 - once you are setup and have a bank account linked, you are pretty much ready to receive crypto. If you want to send crypto, the next step is to buy some. You need to send the exchange some fiat to do so. Depending on the exchange this could be an interac etransfer, a wire transfer, or with Kraken you can even walk into a post office and hand over cash (for a fee). Once the fiat arrives on the exchange (depending on the funding method it can be almost instant, or take a few days) you are ready to buy. Step 3 - Time to buy some crypto! What you are doing is asking the other users of the exchange to take your money and send you crypto. The simplest method is to use the market price. This will get actioned pretty much immediately and now you will have crypto available in your exchange wallet. Whoa now old nerdy guy, this is a lot of reading and sounds shady and complicated. And WTF is a wallet? It sounds more complicated than it is. Conceptually it's like a regular wallet. I won't get into the technical aspect of it but it's a repository for crypto. Each type of crypto has a separate wallet. Ok. So now you have a wallet with some crypto in it. Now what? If you want to send it to someone else, you ask them for their wallet address, and then perform a transfer. For bitcoin it takes anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour on average for the transfer to complete. This is because of that network across the globe that I talked about earlier. Every transaction on the network is queued and processed and double triple etc checks are done to make sure it's valid. Once it is marked as valid on the network, it appears as sent and will be in the receivers wallet. Once someone has crypto, it is very easy to send to someone else. There are apps that you can use to instantly send between two wallets, as much as you want, basically for free. So if someone wanted to pay a provider for a service, they could instantly send them crypto. Once sent, it cannot be recovered unless the recipient agrees to send it back. Great. So it's a harder to track way to send fake money then. Wonderous! Well the great thing is you can easily trade it for fiat currency again. Go back to your exchange, sell your crypto for fiat, and have the exchange send it to your verified bank account - it takes up to 5 days to receive. Ok weirdo, once again whyyyyy would I want to do this? - it's a way to instantly transfer something of value to another person somewhat anonymously - it can be easily converted into real money in a bank account - there is also a risk involved due to the volatility. If you hold on to the crypto for too long before converting it to fiat, the price could go down and you could lose value. Conversely if the price goes up, you could gain value Personally I've done very well over the short and long term by holding onto bitcoin for certain periods. With the volatility right now, buying at the right moment you could double your investment. Or you could just as easily lose it. As with every type of currency transaction there is risk involved. With traditional fiat transfers, it's very traceable. With crypto, it's a bit harder to trace and there are ways to make it even harder, but for the most part it won't show up on a bank statement when you are sending it to someone which helps the clients. For the providers it can add a bit more of a process to cash out vs physical cash. There's a lot more than can be covered here, especially around security, trading and wallets. I'm happy to answer questions to the best of my ability.

The article also gives the impression, unlike other posts on this board, that he is not intending to sell, and that the closing was solely due to the insurance issue. I am not sure how that will effect other bars in town. It will be interesting, but I can see the government stepping in if no bars (strip clubs or otherwise) can get affordable insurance.

Lastly, you can have more than one . Just don’t kiss and tell 😂. When I was in my teens, I always had 2-3 daddy. And the daddy could be as young as me back then, as long as he could pay me for shopping and spoil me rotten. Sweet memory. Enjoy being young my dear boy, it will not be forever 😌

Hi everyone, I’m new to this platform and was looking for some help and recommendations. I’m 24 year-old male going to university and working at a departmental store. I'm a pretty open book and I'm down for just about anything for money. I’m 6’1, shredded body figure. It would be very helpful if anyone could recommend me any site where to place an ad for finding sugar mommas.

Well, all of us used to be young too. I always had sugar daddy from my teen to my early 30s. It happened naturally because I have an admiration for those who are older, wiser, caring, smart with a big heart and having a financial superiority. I’m always 18 deep in my heart 😎 Yes, it’s fun and rewarding, especially if the sugar daddy (or sugar mama in your case) is caring and love to spoil us rotten. I met them pretty much everywhere, seriously. The last one I met when I had my latte at Starbucks. A senior VP of a big pharmaceutical company in Geneva. Our relationship lasted for 9 years. If you work in a department store, be friendly to older ladies that seem liberated, generous and open. Introduce yourself properly, give a genuine compliment and exchange phone number if she is willing to. You can also join dating sites and specifically mentioning your intention. i’m pretty sure you can do that. Check the interview of Sam. Read of what he explained. Unlike men whose prioritize the look, we as women look at so many aspects before choosing a partner. Good look and athletic body helps, but most importantly you have to be polite, attentive, romantic and be a gentleman, Once you conquer our heart, you will be surprised of how much we are willing to give. Good luck 😉

I have dated @charlottequinn123 a couple of times and I must say I had one of the best experiences ever. She is just so gorgeous, loving, caring and friendly.

I will see her again and again. A real gem!

Jazz seems to be getting a lot of attention/comments. I’ve seen some comments that compare her to Erica. IMHO I found Erica to be somewhat pushy, trying to up sell you at the end of the massage. Can someone PM with more specifics regarding Jazz

Don't make me cry! Thank you @Kitten. You are a gem and we are just as lucky to have you apart of our world too.

I have more and more clients complain about some verified girls on Leolist.Cc scamming people asking for online gift card or etransfer before hand and never return the call nor text once received. One guy who just saw me also complain about a girl who has been discussed in here and “vouched “ by members of Lyla who turn out to be not exactly as advertised. I won’t say names but I just want to say that you guys have to be careful even when the girls have been discussed in here but without proper recos from “verified” hobbyists who have seen us often. Sincerely Allie
